robysue you are GOOD!!!! I was only at that pressure for it says 0.2 min then it went up to 14 and then 15. I was read the chart wrong the VS were at 13. Total for the night was around 375 VS.

You know... there are times when I can even hear vibrations in the hose. I wonder if my hose buddy would help with that although, I have never had that many VS before. I bought the hose buddy but can't figure out the easy way to get it on the hose yet. I would post my charts but I can't figure that ...

I was looking at my charts on encore viewer and saw something that I don't understand... not surprising really. On the page called "Summary of Daily Events per Hour" at a pressure of 14 I have 360 VS (vibratory snores). Can someone tell me what this means or what could cause it? On another note, I f...

I have 3 pairs of Small pillows for the Swift FX Mask System. I would like to trade for some combination of medium and large. I am using a different mask but would like to try the FX swift again with a different size pillow and my DME gave me 4 pairs of small pillows. Obviously she had "stolen/borro...

Pugsy - so you think the setting of 8 min and 15 max is good right? Can you explain to me what the leak graph is showing? I do feel like I slept better last night than I did when i just had the straight 8 on my other machine. Does it seeem to you I am still snoring a lot? That Flex thing is activate...

Thanks Beckah - I will work on setting that up when I get home. So I can do this myself!!

Thanks Pugsy for being so helpful as always.

I love this place, learning soo soo much!!!

My full report should be posted soon.

I think it will be easier for me to just type until I figure out how to do it. Can I get your opinions, thoughts on the following results from last night which was my first night with my new APAP: Minimum pressure was set at 8 maxiumum 15. Here is the auto CPAP summary: Auto CPAP Mean Pressure 10.0 ...

I have my overnight report on my desktop as a pdf file. I cannot figure out how to get it over here so that other members can look at it and tell me what they see. Can anyone help me with that?
Thanks

Oops not sure if she said auto-titrating or auto-adjusting. At any rate it should adjust to what I need so I don't have to go back every 3 weeks to the Dr and the DME....

A little update, had my Dr's appt and chickened out. I did ask for a data capable machine but the PA talked me out of it said lets up the pressure to 10 and wait a few weeks. I tucked my tail between my legs and left. Emailed DME yesterday to see if she had the prescription to change the pressure an...

Thank you all!!!! Send me some Power Vibes so I can stand up for myself tomorrow. If this was for one of my kids I would have no problem with it!!! I'll keep you posted. Night.

THanks Janknitz. I read the whole thing and it is GREAT information!!! Its all there for me I just have to use it tomorrow when I talk to these people. Sometime I will change my avatar. It just takes me forever to do stuff like that. I'm not the most computer literate!!! My language was pretty mild ...

Thanks Pugsy!!! I just read janknitz blog about it. It seems there's a chance I could get it changed. That is if I can grow a backbone!!! I am going to write down the machine I want, go to the Dr. ask if they will write me a script for it. Then I will call the DME and see if I can trade it. OK thats...

Aww Lars4life where is the love? Not only do you not give me any sympathy, now I have to worry about my avatar...oh and my language.

I downloaded info to encore for the first time tonight and was so excited to see my numbers... until I only saw the hours used. So I jumped on live chat and jeepers helped me to realize that I don't have a data capable machine. I am so bummed. I was so ready to take charge of this sleep apnea thing ...
