Oh my goodness, I was not told that, I will be asking the Cardio & my RT about this. I want to be as armed with questions as I can be. I only am able to get 2 hrs on the machine but am working on it. This info just makes me want to fight harder. Thank you so very much! Sorry about not highlighting p...

Thank you Lsat, that is what I was/am wondering. My apologies if I did not word my post right.

Did that, but did not find an answer to my question....But thank you.

I will find out the results of my heart tests Friday, but the dr thinks I possibly suffer from Afib. What I would like to know is how will that effect the use of Cpap????

Thanks in advance....

So in all aspects when I asked to have a new study done...it was a good idea & I should keep trying to get one. While I am waiting I will keep trudging along.

Hi Dori, nice to meet you also.

Slinky: I am lost, if the data is not really good data then why in carnation are they telling me it is ok?? Like I said, I am not giving up but am confused on the data situation.

Thanks

It happens on & off, usually I have a reading AHI reading 2 to 3 in that time period. I sure wish they would let LeAnna start coming back.

Morning Everyone, Here is the reading.... Pressure 9, Leaks 0.10 L/s, AHI 0.0, AI 0.0, HI 0.0

I like the zero look (lol) I am still trudginging along

Thanks

Thank you you both for welcoming me back Pugsy: Glad your still around & hope all has been well. Yes I am still waking up every 2 hrs or so. I thought I was on a roll once I got the mask & pressure right. The health care system here got worse. They took the only person that came to this area out Off...

I have been away from here for awhile, so I thought I would pop in & say hello to all. When I was on here last time I was having so many issues that I just felt were finally to much. YAY! I have a great mask, pressure is good, The only thing I am still having an issue with is the 2 hr sleep period, ...

I had a bad night last night, with only 2 hrs on the machine. But it wasn't the machine or me fighting it, I was in alot of pain. I still have some pain now but am hoping to get the 4hrs I have been getting.

If people would just read the ingredients on alot of what they use every day, not just on food & research the wording...I think jaws would be dropping from everywhere.

See this .pdf document: http://www.sleephealth.com/Collateral/Documents/English-US/ACC-MCPO-0019_0.pdf . While this is not a direct link to the government regulations regarding CPAP compliance requirements for Medicare, it does state, in part: "Medicare requires 4+ hours/night of use ≥ 70% of the n...

I did use a nasal irrigation, but "No Neti Pot" (lol). I figured out my barrette thing was not working it was actually hindering the use. So I sat & figured out a better modification for my Swift fx (hers). Plus I had to cut the chin strap to make it smaller & I wear it a little differently than it ...

Thanks for the responses & congrats. I think with what you said Pugsy about being hard to exhale with using them I will just continue on my way with Cpap, since I'm off that 1-2 hr mark I was stuck on for a long time. I even cut the pops down. Have a beautiful day!!

Thanks again!!
