Re: AHI ZERO last night!

I echo the BRAVO! And I don't want to poop on your success, but... You might want to reset your machine if you see this repeated over several nights in a row. It may be unique to my ASV box or my usage - YMMV. I've had this (machine recording zero AHI) happen probably every four to six months. First...

Re: Any one using this treatment? I'd like to know more

Doesn't claim efficacy for Complex apnea.
Would provide zero remedy for Central apneas.
No use to me...

Re: RESMED S9 VPAP ADAPT

No personal experience with them but have seen several people here recommend:

Don't see an Adapt on the "Used" listing right this minute but I have seen them in the past.

Re: OT: What does everybody do for a living?

Have worked for DoD in Logistics since I was 17. I'm about two years from the minimum retirement age.
Currently I'm a data miner; extracting, analysing, modeling, etc etc etc.
Bottom line: helping support our soldiers, fliers and sailors to come home safely.

FFM works well for me.
Full face was prescribed by Doc. DME handed it to me and performed a three minute "fitting".
It took a bit of "fiddlin' about" to get my mask adjusted to where it's effective, but it's effective.

Re: new Snore Alarm device?

Ed, As I read this thread I wondered if you have been through a study to diagnose your OSA or if this is a self-diagnosis. I would caution you that Central events won't be resolved by a snore alert device. I'll give the GIANT marketing folks some credit on this; the web link specifically mentions CS...

Re: Which way hose please

Mine goes up, up, up... I really like the ingenuity of CFrog's solution. But I don't have any fishing poles laying about. Saw this recommended by another forum member a while back. Have been very happy with it. It's inexpensive (~$10.), easy to "install", and very portable. Arm is loose enough to fo...

Re: Software for S9 Users- ResScan vs SleepyHead

I am a fan of ResScan... I tried SleepyHead early on; before I attempted to use ResScan. It installed properly and imported the data as expected. When I tried to graph the datasets my labels appeared as black on black. I had no clue what the graphs were. Posted here and received a reply from jedimar...
