palerider I see we use similar machines. My understanding is that when using the full facemask with S9 the auto on and off feature of S9 does not work. What I'm wondering is.. when I need to get up during night should I turn off/shut down my machine before removing mask and when I return back to pla...

I should have put that a bit better - it's not that they won't track stats, but under 4 hrs is not considered meaningful as a picture of your sleep, and certainly is not accepted as 'compliance' when it comes to e.g. insurance paying for machines, but I do believe some may still report something fo...

Much appreciated.. not heard of sleepyhead before.. will take a look as I dont have software to read my machine info and realize it's a good thing to do. Long story short.. my machine has sat for over a year without usage. I realize I MUST start using as my body is feeling it. I used it last night a...

Thank you Julie I did not realize that

Long story short.. my machine has sat for over a year without usage. I realize I MUST start using as my body is feeling it. I used it last night and it seems to not be tracking my AHI numbers. I took 2 screen shots so you can see what I see when I went to check my results. Do I need to reset it some...

To be honest I've not used the machine since about my last post. #1. Air bubbles are coming up..almost like a very light belching but up on throat area. No taste like acid reflux or something just air ad it's damn annoying. Almost like hickups but not that intense. just air bubbles..but I"m not comf...

and then there's the whole mind racing with thoughts about it that can be hard to turn off. . You hit the nail on the head when you said the above! That's exactly why I've not checked back in till now. I was so tired and run down when I got my machine, trying to absorb it all, worrying I would not ...

Well my first night went about as good as I thought it would and it was not good. The positives are I never gasped for air even on my back WHEN I was able to "drift" off to sleep. The negatives are I never really slept or was able to go into sleep. I would keep waking up. It went on for hours. Yeste...

Did you get the software loaded? Yes. Unfortunately could not load on my laptop as it does not seem compatible with windows 7. Got a few errors so installed on one of my other pc's at home. Was hoping to load on my laptop so I could cozy up to the s9. LOL Guess it does have the removable sd so not ...

Will see how it goes tonight. I've been adjusting and testing the settings today and after a couple of hours of not falling asleep I'm tired and ready for a real nap. LOL I was close and felt mysef a couple of times but my mind would not allow it as I was really just trying it on for comfort and to ...

I'm going to download the software and get things set up tonight. Unfortunately due to the sever high winds we've had in Las Vegas the past few days, along with my apnea issues, I can't think to clearly right now. Very unfocussed so I"m going to get things ready tonight, software and watch a couple ...

excellent thank you! I book marked and will watch that in detail tomorrow.

Oh yes Otter. I remember seeing your post about secondwindpap several weeks back. I was too late to the party and the real discounted slightly used machines were gone by the time I grabbed my ccard. LOL I did get my machine from them but had to go bit higher priced but I have it now..and that's what...

FINALLY all my equipment has arrived. Ok, some info for those who've helped and may have forgot because it seems like forever ago I started this journey. Was diagnosed with OSA about 8 years ago. I did NOT get the results for various reasons. The tech who administered the test said..you've got it ba...
