I do just get this sense that..
whatever is happening with you...

Is happening to me as well !

3 day cycles and 55 is too weird

lol !!

Max

We are 55 year old... 3 day cycling.... "soul mates" ! lol

Maybe my cause is as yours? dunno!

by the way if you were born March 13 1957
Id be REALLY worried !

Approx every third day or so I feel awful:tired unrested all day...or on occasion fine and too tired to function tho by night. All looks good on apap: no leaks, no wild AHIs...pressures hangs around at 7.5..my range is 6-14 on machine On good days Im great! All I can see is that total time, if less ...

PS I think I left out the part about where I learned the manufacturer, just before the patent expired, bought out all the cos that wanted to market the generic! Hence the generic was insane$$$ and the BRAND of NUVIGIL (similar drug) is now cheaper than generic Provigil...thus my insurance company wa...

UPDATE I called Blue Cross to find out exactly why they won't cover this (as my doctor simultaneously was dictating an appeal letter for Provigil) BC said they WOULD Cover NUVIGIL (with a 50 dollar copay) IF my doctor goes through some type of formality and call in the new drug RX all on Monday now ...

So Ive had some severe fatigue days lately and my doctor wrote me for provigil ! My neighbor, a pharmacist assured me I was on the correct path, I felt it to be the right path! So I went back to pick it up at my pharmacy the next day.....yesterday and..... NINE HUNDRED AND FOURTY DOLLARS for a 30 da...

Im thinking the amount of sleep (as well as the quality) is an issue for me and of course how I feel. For those with the same issues, what was your solution? What did your docs reccomend? Is lunesta generic? I take ambien and its lost its punch My problem is falling asleep AND staying asleep thanks

I have had some symptoms lately and it's been an every other day deal. My graphs look fine. I can read them and its all good. I was going nuts wondering what the variable was that caused a bad day (fatigue) Vs a good one It also seemed to be affected by the last hours of sleeep if I could sneak an e...

HOW related IS apnea to depression?

I have had some probs with equipment lately and day drowsiness, but I also noted this HORRIBLE depression too!
Hopelessness, helplessness the whole bit!

It thankfully has abated

Did the apnea cause this?

So the feedback I get says it wont go to 20 if I dont need 20 where tho do I set the minimum range to? My old script was cpap 8 I am set now at 8-20 Seems the machine does spend a little time at 6 and 7 now (even with min set to MOST time is at 8 some nine and an occasional 10 Never higher in 10 day...

My understanding is it wont go to higher if its not needed.
So the question of questions is..
Should I reduce the range and if so to between what and what? 8-14 ?
Would that stop the swings in AHI?

I asked yesterday about changes day to day in AHI results on my new (as in new to) autopap, but what Ive seen is amazing? (maybe) on result tracking: 3 nights ago was AHI 7 and felt great the next day 2 nights ago was AHI 30 and felt kinda bad next day (yesterday) last night was off the charts at 52...

Not that long ago TSA was cluelass about cpap.
On more than 1 time I was pulled out for questioning and secondary !

Now they know about it!

So it's a week now on auto 8-20 (Vs cpap set to I feel great, the only day I had a return of symptoms was the day after I tried to use a new 8 foot hose! Lesson learned with apap on that one, despite reassurance from DME nback on 6' and doing great! My pressure goes to 9 a bit....... and on rare occ...
