I bought the Autoset based on advice here, but the MD said it wasnt necessary and went with a fixed pressure.

Have APAP, min/max levels set to same. Questions!

Hi - I've used a ResMed S9 Autoset for the last 5 years, but my doctor set the min/max pressure to the same amount (12). Its actually worked fine, and my AHI is less than 3 most nights.

Help-I really want to like my ResMed AirFit P10 Nasal Pillow

I used this for the first 18 months, and then after carefully reading reviews of alternatives, decided to try a Nasa...

Time on Sleepyhead doesnt match real life?

Hi - im not sure if this is a Sleepyhead issue, or a issue with my machine. I'm on day 3 of my ResMed S9 Autoset. When I download the data to Sleepyhead, its not the correct time. For example, I went to bed at 2:55am last night, but Sleepyhead says I went to bed at 11:55am. So its 3 hours off. My ti...
