Thanks for all the replies!

LSAT: by nasal rinse, do you mean that Neilmed squirt bottle, or netipot? I have isotonic saline spray as well.

For those who take oral or spray allergy meds, are they safe for daily use? I thought prolonged use of nasal sprays can harm the septum?

I've come to accept my sleep apnea, and my girlfriend is very supportive of me wearing my mask (she'll even nudge me if I'm too lazy to put it on!) I've tried a full face mask, but always woke up whenever I rolled on my side and the mask smushed my face or leaked. I'm using the Airfit P10 nasal pill...

24-48 hours? I've had it unplugged since last night, maybe it will work now!

If I use a new humidfier, will that solve the problem?

I usually wash the removable chamber with some white vinegar or soapy water, but I had the grand idea of washing the bottom of the actual H5i humidifier

It was one of those "why did I just do that??" moments, to be sure

Hi all, Sorry if this is a repost. I had the bad idea of washing my S9 autoset humidifier chamber with warm water and soap on Sunday night. When I plugged it in, I got numerous error messages, including failed climateline tubing and, now, humidifier failure (I don't recall the exact message.) I call...

I got a little farther, ran into another problem, which is now solved. I loaded and installed the drivers mentioned in the first post in this link. thank you so much for mentioning them, I would never have found them otherwise. Now when I do the import, it finds the oximeter and says it has uploade...

Hi all, I've been struggling with my poor sleep for a few years now. According to my SleepyHead reports, my AHI averages ~0.6, but it's a struggle to get out of bed still! I have tapered from 1 mg Ativan down to 0.25 mg at night, so if anything I would expect that would help with keeping my throat m...

an update for what it's worth: reformatting the SD card did the trick. my machine is recording data normally. unfortunately, i've lost data between july 2014 to may 2015. i think i might have forgotten to lock the SD card when i put it in my computer back in july! i don't know how the sleep doctor m...

I can definitely see files/folders when I have the SD card plugged into my computer. The reader should be fine because I also tested by digital camera's SD card and it was able to be read on my computer. I backed up the resmed SD card, re-formatted it tonight, and will see if I get tonight's sleep d...

that was usually the case for me too. i wonder if maybe there is something wrong with the SD card.

Hi all, I haven't used sleepyhead in almost a year. I tried to import my data as usual, and it didn't import anything new at all. The most recent data was July 2014.... the last time I used the software!! Here's my info: - Mac OSX 10.10.3 - Resmed S9 - tried running sleepyhead v0.9.8-1 I tried delet...

Thanks! I'll ask about it

also...what do you mean by "sleep is getting worse"...is it just the fact that you are having difficulty waking up in the AM or has the sleep during the night changed and if so, how? Like are you waking more often during the night? Sleep apnea worse? Besides having trouble waking up in the AM, I no...

I do know about the sleep-related side effects, but I'm kind of in a bind: if I don't take the meds, my OCD/anxiety are worse, but with this increase, my sleep is getting worse (it wasn't that great even on CPAP, but at least I could get out of bed before 8:30 am) I need to find a middle ground betw...

Hi all, I have OCD/depression/anxiety. My psychiatrist increased my lexapro from 10mg to 20mg every morning, and prescribed taking 0.25-0.5 mg of ativan at night to help with anxiety when I first wake up. So now I'm taking: morning: 20 mg lexapro, 1 mg ativan night: 0.25-0.5 mg ativan I've noticed t...
