Re: New to CPAP...making right decisions?

90% pressure keeps gettting up to 10.5 every night. How long should i leave it on auto, and switch back to CPAP? I think i prefer the CPAP over the auto, just want to make sure the pressure is right

Re: New to CPAP...making right decisions?

Will leave in auto for a few weeks and see what happens. I just don't think I slept enough at the lab to get a good pressure. People have so many questions when they start CPAP, so thanks for all the help.

Re: New to CPAP...making right decisions?

Will Sleepyhead work with my machine. It has a modem on the back of the machine that sends information to somewhere, LOL They said that I and my doctor can request a report after 30 days, and anytime after that, when ever I want. I have an SD card, but my home care provider did not have it inserted....

Re: New to CPAP...making right decisions?

So good night on APAP, 90% was at 9.5, machine led/screen was reading 8,/and I slept with it for over 9 hrs. Making progress, still thinking the 7 set up in the lab (if u read my story above) does not seem like it I was alseep long enough to determine the right pressure.

Re: New to CPAP...making right decisions?

Thank you for the info. Sounds like you leave it in Auto all the time. I hope to give it a week to ten days and see how I feel, and what my AHI number looks like.

New to CPAP...making right decisions?

Been Reading all your posts, and found them very helpful. Hope it is okay that I add to this forum, as I have some questions/issues.
