Re: Switched From Straight CPAP to AutoSet
So, I have 2 sleep studies that show all I need is 9cmH2O on my back. How come my autoset goes way past that? Last night I was past 19cmH20? I feel great! But such high pressures are a concern for me. Last night was near perfect with an AHI of 0.1. I only had one Hypopnea towards the end of my slee...

Re: Switched From Straight CPAP to AutoSet
You know, I just realized I had my humidifier on with no water tub inside! I have the resmed s9 AutoSet with the humidifier. I'll provide graphs, but this water tub thing may be the root cause. Any opinions?

Re: Expectations and my story
Thank you for your input DoriC. ) 0.0AHI was never my goal to begin with. All I wanted were the same numbers I had when I used a nasal mask which was around 0.3AHI and under. I just reached a point where I wanted to make sure I was doing everything possible to have successful therapy, because I woul...

Re: Expectations and my story
I have great numbers but, I still feel stressed out and confused. Last night I had breakthrough though. I made sure I washed my mask well in hot distilled water with mild soap. I brushed the silicone with a tooth brush, risned it in cold tap water, and lastly rinsed it in hot distilled water. The ma...

Re: Expectations and my story
Sure, I'll post some graphs tonight. But to clear up what I said, I had really low AHI with a nasal mask. Normally around 0.3AHI and under. And with a FFMask it's usually around 0.7AHI. And for the section on Central Apneas, I meant 4-7 events per night. But I'll post some screen shots. Thank you al...

Re: Expectations and my story
I have both the S9 Elite and the S9 AutoSet. I took a look at the data last night and came to the conclusion that my autopap therapy isn't good for me. My pressure keeps climbing up to 14 and around that pressure I have numerous CA's, anywhere from 4-7. So autopap complicates things for me. But on a...

Expectations and my story
How should I expect to feel with CPAP therapy? I've been on CPAP therapy for a year and a half. And the vast majority of that year and a half I've felt confused and mediocre. I just woke up about 3 weeks ago, and realized that I needed to pay more attention to what was going on. I'm tired of walking...
