For me, if I get a large enough leak going the machine turns off. You can either resolve the leak issue or turn off that feature...

Good to know - thanks!

Thanks, I will try that! Curiously, there were 2 occasions during the night when my machine turned itself off (which is a whole other issue I'll need to address, but for right now I'm ostriching that one), so I should be able to look at a good stretch of data before the first shutdown.

Last night my overall AHI was 11.9. For most of the night things look pretty good, but round about 4:30 am started to devolve into an unholy mess. I honestly think it's not "good" data, but what I've heard you all refer to as sleep-wake junk. So, I'd like to find some way to eliminate that portion o...

How can they "not work"? they fit in the hose, and I'm still using them. They catch stuff that gets past the hypoallergenic filter. , This is a picture of the humidifier. Note the arrow pointing to the hose outlet. Now imagine a cube siting on top of this thing, within the recessed area. The bulbou...

Were you on your back that second part of that 1 hour segment above?

Probably. I've always slept on my back, although I've been trying to sleep on my side just to change things up, since I've been having so much trouble lately. Even when I go to sleep on my side, though, I wake up on my back.

Okay...Can I see the overall night detailed report please...not just the one hour segment.

Absolutely - here you go!

Another member uses Anti-Bacterial Filters to help with his allergies. Interesting - I have some that I bought a while back, but they didn't work with my old machine so I put them on a shelf and forgot about them. I'll have to dig them out and give them a try. Thanks so much for the suggestion!

I am confused....this one hour segment above...how much of it were you awake?

Just the first 10 minutes or so - however long it took me to fall back to sleep after getting up to use the restroom.

Here's a screenshot of a miserable hour or so from a recent miserable night. I got up after about 3 hours asleep (which seems to be pretty common for me) to use the restroom, and this hour is after I wend back to bed until I woke up again for some other unknown reason. Admittedly, it's rather extrem...

I just bought a used machine, and it came with four of the Resmed Swift FX Pillows, size small, part number 61521 that I will not used. They are all brand new, still in their factory-sealed packages. If anyone will be able to make use of them, please let me know and I can send to you.

OK, after a lot of craigslist stalking and 350 mile road trip, I'm the proud new owner of a Resmed Aircurve 10V Auto with just under 500 hours on board! I was unable to figure out which of the settings on the old machine corresponded to which on the new, so I just crossed my fingers and made a wish ...

Thank you. I did that, but still couldn't figure it out from the results I got - that's why I thought I should consult the experts!

Can anyone tell me if the Philips Respironics DreamStation BiPAP Pro Machine DSX600T11 is an auto BiPap? I'm looking at buying one from a private seller, and I don't trust him to be any more knowledgeable on this topic than I am!

Thanks in advance for the help!
