Thanks for the encouragement. I realized I just needed to hear someone say who is going through the same thing "to hang in there". Unless you've been there it is hard to understand the frusteration of just trying to get a normal night's sleep and feeling rested. w/o all the drama I am going to stick...

frusterated with cpap

I have only been on cpap for about a week and a half. Started out enthusiastic and hopeful of having more energy. The biggest problem is it takes me an hour or so to fall asleep wearing the mask and then I wake up numerous times during the night moving hose, fixing leaks, etc. I am determined to be ...

I'm sure I will be upgrading out of pocket but sounds like it might be worth it to have nightly data. I will give them a call first thing tomorrow.
Thanks for the advice.

I had to go back and look at machine for correct model. I have the resmed compact S8. I don't think it has anyway to check daily data but that would definately be a plus.
Thanks for your help.

No choice with service provider but resmed

When I went in to get cpap the only choice I had with service provider was resmed equipment. Since I have a hard time not breathing out of my mouth opted for the full face mask. Since I am new at products and there are so many I would like to know how resmed compares to other products on the market....

Now I have a sore on the bridge of my nose. I put a bandaid on nose before using cpap last night but wonde...
