Seeing pulmonologist tomorrow. Will report back. Majority of events after AHI jumped up were clear airway events or unspecified apnea. My obstructive numbers have remained stable. Without going into further detail, I think the narcotics are the culprit.

I use a ResMed S9 autoset set at a pressure range of 7-16. I use a Fisher and Paykel Flexifit 431 mask. I have had sleep apnea treated with CPAP for 3-4 years. Usually my AHI is in the 3-5 range with an average pressure of 10. Over the last month I have seen a run of very high AHI's. The highest has...

The above is my post. I posted before I logged in so it posted as a guest. I apologize for posting before searching the forum. I have found several answers for the "blowfish" problem on various threads but I'm still not sure why it didn't happen the first week and it is now. Any thoughts? Also do an...

Thanks. I spoke to CPAP.com and they said to use the Ultra Mirage II setting as it is a nasal mask similar to the Respironics. I still would like to know what the mask setting actually does. If anyone knows I'd appreciate it.

I am a family physician and a new CPAP user. After a lab sleep study (AHI=20) and a home CPAP titration study I started with an S8 Autoset 2 last week. The S8 was recommended by several respiratory therapists I know. (a colleague wrote the prescription in case you're wondering). I got the S8 and a Q...
