How to stop leaks when sleeping on your side
My mask fits very well when I am on my back, sometimes it comes loose when I sleep on my side. My leak rate is 25, so it's well under the 50L/H that seem to cause problems. Should I look at getting a specific pillow to help this? Does anyone have any input? Thanks.

Of odd readings, AHI's and sessions >4 hours
To give some background, I started out with pressures on my APAP at 5-10 given that I haven't had time to go back for the second test. My average pressure on those settings was 7.8 with an AHI just under 5. I adjusted my settings to go from 7 to 11 instead. My AHI dropped down to 2.8 ish. I have bee...

as for your ignorant response to Wulfman, boy have you got your head up your ass. I think you mean rude, not ignorant. If you're too ignorant to know the difference, it might not be the best idea to write publicly. I'm not a boy, thank you, and I don't think it's me that has my head up my ass aroun...

Wolfman, Thanks for the rude, ignorant response. Please refrain from assuming anything about my time in the future. I likely make more than you, have more responsibility than you and am smarter than you. Ergo, my time is likely worth a lot more than yours. You might want to refrain from making any a...

Will the smart card fit into a generic smart card reader
I'm rather pissed that these equipment vendors charge so much for non-clinical end user software. I'm wondering if I can pull the information off of the smart card reader and mess around with it programmatically myself. Does anyone know if I can use a standard card reader for this? Thanks.

A-PAP pressure enough?
Is there a way that I can tell if my A-PAP is set to enough pressure? Right now it's set to go between 5 and 10. I didn't go back for the second sleep test as I haven't really had the time. The 90% pressure reading is 7.8. My APN-HYP ratio is just under 5. Can anyone tell me if I should have this ch...

Card not in machine, will it get old readings?
I've had my card out of my machine for a week now. If I put it back in, will it take out what's in memory on the machine already?
