Re: altitude vs pressure

FYI, didn't get any help from here, so I went ahead and reduced my pressure last night by 10%, from 16 down to 14.4. Woke up this morning feeling fine, no aches, and the numbers come up in line with weekly and monthly averages. We'll be at this altitude for another week, so I'm going to leave it at ...

Re: altitude vs pressure

Home altitude, southern Alabama, runs about 500ft. We've been setting at sisters house at about 4500 for the last ten days or so. My EPR is set at 3, as high as it goes.

altitude vs pressure

I've been having trouble the last few days with waking up with a sore diaphram. My pressure is set at 16, but we have been setting about 4000ft higher elevation than home. Should I decrease the pressure a little because of the change in elevation, and if so, how much?

Re: Newbie w water in my mask and tube

Having just got my machine, I've been experimenting with the humidity settings. Couple of tidbits I've learned from here and other sites, I had the wive make me a cover out of a fleece blanket we had, and I installed a hook on the wall above my head, and suspended the hose from it with a rubber band...

Re: Ready to Give up! Can't sleep! Feel worse!

I can understand what you're saying. I've had my machine for just eleven days, and for the first eight, felt the same as you. I read advice here and tried something new every night, with no concernable affect. I also felt I was waking more than before I started on CPAP. When I did the titration, the...

Re: Data Software - Pros & Cons

New member, first post. I've only had my equipment for ten days, and still learning. Must say that everything I've learned so far has been from this site. First question, I see a lot of folks listing the ResMed software in their equipment, but everywhere I've looked says it's no longer available. Wh...
