[quote="ozij"]Ready, Please tell us more about your test. Did you have a mask on for part of the night? For all of it? Those results you posted look so similar to your previous results that we really need info about the test to undesrtand what's going on. What does the doctor want you to do in these...

Hi. I'm certainly not the test results expert, but I'm wondering at what pressure during the last study did the min sp02 occur? Your hypopneas are still quite high. Is there a follow-up plan to assure the issues are resolved by a pressure of 17? Every step closer is a good thing. Hope you feel bett...

Most like they will check your machine w/a manometer or whatever they call it to make sure it is correctly producing the set pressure and then probably they will set your pressure according to the results of your titration so you don't have to take it to a DME supplier to have it done. ____________...

i just wanted to say thank all of you that are trying to help me on this and i promise i'll get this caps thing right

Well, the main concern in the sleep evaluation (your first study) was the "desaturation to 76%; 76.5% spent between 80-89%" Way too much of your night was spent below 90% 02 saturation levels. 3/4 of the night your body and organs were not getting sufficient oxygen. During your titration study even...

I am hoping that you left out a number on your second test for the number of apneas. I put the ??? in there where I thought the missing number was. It looks like your numbers were a bit better for the second test, but not by that much. I tried to put your info into chart form to make it easier to c...
