Re: NEwbie
Im following this tread with interest. I was diagnosed about 2 months ago and my AHI was 32. When I went for my second study with my mask my AHI went down to between 3 and 4 with the pressure set at 5. The only difference I notice is that I dont wake up with a headache or have dry mouth at night. I ...

Re: Totaly Frustrated.
Thank you for all the advice. I should have educated myself before I purchased the machine. I will certainly ask ALOT of questions when I see the doc.
BTW I did not get the responses because I did not check the notify me box. Your all very helpful and I feel better now.

Totaly Frustrated.
After 3 weeks with my CPAP I still don't see any difference. I spent a miserable night at the lab for titration (barely slept) so I am not sure if its a total waste of time. I now have an appointment in 2 weeks to see the doc. I just feel like packing it all in. Whats the point? My machine is set fo...

Re: titration what should I expect?
nussy, I'm sorry that your titration study didn't go as well as you'd hoped, but I'm sure that your optimal pressure can be worked out. There's a chance that a pressure of 7 will work fine, and it's worth a try to see how you feel during the daytime. Adjustments can be made as you go along, if need...

Re: titration what should I expect?
I just got back from my sleep lab appointment. I don't think I slept for more than an hour. This has to be one of the worst experiences I had so far. The tech told me that she set the pressure at 7 and she thinks I will be fine. But I have to see the doc so he can write a prescription for the CPAP s...

Re: titration what should I expect?
I was told to bring my own mask and hose. They booked this appointment 2 weeks after I got the setup so I can get used to it.

titration what should I expect?
I am not sure I spelled it right but I have an appointment tomorrow night for them to see how much pressure I need. I had the machine for 2 weeks now and I am slowly getting used to it. BUT I dont see the difference with the machine. Its set at 5. How long does it take them to see how much pressure ...
