Re: Night 3.... getting better
AHHAHAH... Thanks Julie. Yes.. I understand how it's not quite one... But the AHI.. doesn't that look at the actual number of apneas or whatever else the HI means? Or is that an average over the 6.1 hours I had the mask on?

Night 3.... getting better
I was able to fall right asleep with the mask on last night. I remember waking once to go to the bathroom... not my normal 2 or 3 times. One of the biggest things I've noticed over the last 2 nights is the buildup of mucus in my throat. Yes this may sound gross.. but to me it's a big deal if it stop...

Re: First Night with machine
Almost forgot about Night 2. Went to bed around 10:30 and started with the mask on. I woke up around 1:30 and my forehead was a little sweaty... odd cause the A/C was set to 68 in the house. So I got up to use the bathroom and layed back down and dozed off for a bit... mask off. It was around 4 that...

Re: First Night with machine
Thanks everyone for the advice and comments. I will fill out my profile tonight. I would have done it here, from work.. but I don't know what in the world I have. It looks pretty though and lights up! And no.. that's not my wife in the picture. I'd have to run and buy a pack of razors if she was tha...

I fell asleep right away but found myself up a couple hours later feeling very uncomfortable. Is this just something you get used to? I HATE sleeping with anything warm on my face.. pillo...
