increased AHI levels and stress

Last week, I had to rush my Mother to the hospital because she had undiagnosed pnuemonia. When we arrived at the hospital, she had stopped breathing but was intubated and stablized. She's had some ups and downs but she's improving. Unfortunatly, she's still on a respirator but we expect her to be ex...

Re: Three weeks on CPAP - so far so good

Hello Josh, glad to hear your experience is positive as well. I don't know what software my unit came with but it does have an SD card that holds the information. I'll have to look in to the software you mentioned and see if this is compatable. Thanks for the heads up.

Phase II... cpap titration complete

I went for my initial sleep study in August and it was determined that my thunderous snoring and constant fatigue was in fact, sleep apnea. They couldn't reschedule my titration study (because of a computer glitch they were having at the Doc's office), so I was supposed to call them back to schedule...

Few questions after my sleep test... I'm (almost) a newbie

I've been lurking this community for a few weeks now. Last week I finally had an official sleep study performed via my request to my primary Doctor. For years, I've been a big time snorer. My wife and I sleep in different rooms and vacations were tough on my kids and my wife because of this. Lately,...
