Re: It's all good.
Sounds great. I can't wait til that happens for me. After almost 2 months, I still feel the same, if not worse.

Re: CPAP Not Helping Advice Needed
This is the only info I have: CPAP: 9 H2O Pressure BiLevel 1 That is all that is on my paperwork. As far as anything else, I have no idea.

CPAP Not Helping Advice Needed
I have had my CPAP since 3/12/2010. I am so disappointed. I don't feel any better. I think I am getting less sleep. I also have Restless Leg Syndrome which accounts for some of the time, but not every night! I have tried to use the CPAP every night. One week I had a cold, So I did not use it every n...

Re: How much sleep is too much sleep?
Wow, the fact that you are sleeping is great. I am still waiting for that to happen to me. I have been on CPAP almost 3 weeks and I still don't see results. Unfortunately I got a cold this last week and I think that must be affecting everything. The past two nights I did not sleep! Is it possible th...

Water in humidifier
How long does the water in the humidifier last? Mine seems to last about a week. That seems a bit long. I use the CPAP maybe 6-7 hours a night. I have only been using CPAP about 2 weeks so it might even be less than 6 hours since I am still getting used to it. I am trying to do everything right so I...

Re: Restless leg syndrome help
I have had RLS for about 30 years. I have taken every medication known to man. I started on CPAP about 2 weeks ago. I still have RLS, but I am hoping in time the RLS will ease up. My dr. thinks that is possible. Right now I take requip and oxycodene. RLS is a horrible thing to live with. Anyone who ...

Re: Aetna Insurance
I have Aetna and each plan is different. My plan pays 85% and I pay 15% which turns out to be a lot for the sleep study -- $922.00 But each plan is different.

Re: cotton mouth
I also have a dry mouth. I don't think I sleep with my mouth open or they would have told me that in my sleep study. I know the tech looked for that. Also, my meds cause a dry mouth, but now my mouth is even drier! I have to sip on water when I wake up at night and in the morning. If your mouth is d...

Re: Hope for those of you just starting
Thanks for the encouragment. I have been on CPAP a little over a week. I still can't sleep through the night. It might be a little better, not sure. I plan on giving this machine as long as it takes, and I am hopeful one day I will get a good night's sleep -- BUT WHEN???

Re: Finally noticing weight loss~ Happy Dance!
Wow, Jaylee. That is soooo great. You give me hope. I am still waiting to get the energy. But it is only a week on CPAP. How long did it take you before you got your energy back?

Re: is this a good machine?
That looks like the machine I have (only for a week). I was wondering the same thing - if it was a good machine. I cannot find anything in the paperwork that says plus, pro or auto. The book says REMstar Auto A-Flex system. I added this to my profile, so let's see if it shows in my post. My book say...
