Now I have lost a great deal of weight in the last six months, and as I have done so the aerophagia has become worse. I wake up sometimes with a belly full of air and the need to burp repeatedly.

Re: Frustrated with Vpap AdaptSV

Re: Frustrated with Vpap AdaptSV

It doesn't show at all. When I researched this on the web, I found out that only the Vpap AdaptSV *enhanced* tracks AHI.

Re: RESMED S8 Elite Data cable

If there is a 9 pin (male) connector on the back of your unit, then you need a null-modem serial cable. The typical null-modem serial cable is still produced, and can be found at most computer stores (I got one at Frys last week). You will also need a way to connect your mull-modem cable to your com...

We finally settled on the Resmed Vpap AdaptSV, as this unit gave me the least difficulty. Recently my aerophagia has gotte...
