Re: I don't think the Wisp is the mask for me.

You are not alone, I even ordered the larger headgear straps to get away from that very feeling, when I loosen it up enough to inflate the seals it either leaks so bad I cannot stand it or slides up and seals off my nostrils and wakes me up. I like you just don't think its gonna work for me, I am ve...

Re: Pissed about my brick: confront doctor? Or DME?

Re: Just diagnosed, in denial, questions....

Get the machine, I agree with pugsy you might take to it just fine. when I started 8 years ago I found a new best friend in my CPAP machine and I took to it like a duck to water, best thing I have ever done. Not everyone has issues for some of us its a great thing.

First "0" with S9

had ny first clean night with my new S9, 8 hours and 22 minutes worth of sleep, feel pretty good, that is a huge amount of sleep for me, all my insomnia has gone to visit someone else it seems.

Cudos to all here and the threads full of good info.

Re: OXIMETRY - Interfacing the CMS50 with your CPAP Therapy

Well, maybe, I have no idea where the graph I am talking about comes from or is generated. I am referring to the one that shows rem sleep and deep sleep or lite sleep,
Sleepy head has a graph named sleep stages, I cannot view it, maybe its a different software?

Re: OXIMETRY - Interfacing the CMS50 with your CPAP Therapy

This is a great thread and I see I need more equipment, a little off topic and I apologize, I keep seeing these stages of sleep graphs, I have SH on my computer and see a graph named such but I cannot view it, am I doing something wrong, leaving something out?

Re: Results from quitting smoking

I am just now 27 days into quitting smoking, will let you know more later but as of yet I can see no difference in the apnea, lots of senses are getting better though.
