After One Full Week -- AHI Under 5 Last Night

I've been on therapy for one full week. In this time, I've tried the Activa, Optilife, and Aura. I've settled on the Aura as the interface for me. The Activa leaked badly for me no matter how I adjusted it. Loose or a little tighter, it didn't matter. It just leaked badly. I liked the Optilife a lot...

SQL Server is the name of Microsoft's flagship database system. It is not a separate computer server sitting out in cyberspace. It is a database located on your local hard driver. You were asked a question during the Encore about where you wanted the datafiles located. If you didn't specify the a lo...

The APAP came set from CPAP.COM for a 4-20 range. I noticed that the apneas are 0 from 5-9. When the pressure hits 10, I am seeing apneas develop. So the question is...Are the apneas developing because the pressure is higher or is the pressure going higher because of the apneas? No, my mouth isn't b...

How long???

Yes, I know eveyone is different and everyone's experiences and results will vary according to the person. That being said, I'd like to know what others experienced with their CPAP therapy specifically in how long it took for their AHI to start dropping. Okay, I know this is only my second night. Th...

Initial payment is out of pocket, but insurance will reimburse 80%. I've already submitted the claim.

Re: great

You are a very fortunate person. You did not say how you manafgd to get an auto/c flex with software and reader to start. This takes a long time with many and only after a supreme court appeal. I think it's because I'm relocating. I had a normal check up with my doctor a couple of weeks ago and tol...

Started CPAP Therapy Last Night

At long last, I finally got my CPAP machine. I have a Respironics Auto M Series with C-Flex. I also got the smart card reader and software. Last night I slept for 7 hours and 31 minutes. Even though I had some issues with mask leaks at higher pressures, I slept pretty soundly and feel quite refreshe...

Got Prescription Today / APAP Coming Tomorrow

I did my first split night sleep study about a month ago. The results are still not back. In fact, I called the sleep clinic yesterday and they said the results haven't been transcribed yet. To complicate matters, this week I accepted a new job offer in Raleigh, NC. My start date in March 5th. My fa...
