Re: Do apenas occur in everyone's sleep to somedgree?

True - I look at my numbers in Sleepyhead and they don't indicate the quality of my sleep - they indicate my apneas. What I have been looking at is total time in apnea. So I think of it like this - my total time in apnea ranges from about 45 seconds to less than 2 minutes during let's say 4 to 6 eve...

Re: Do apenas occur in everyone's sleep to somedgree?

Thanks for all the great answers. I feel a hangover when my RDI is above 2! The reply that interested me most was about oxygen levels. I live at 4650 elevation. There is less oxygen at this height. How do I know what my night time O2 levels are and what is considered "normal" (there is that word aga...

Re: I need some help please - Exhausted with Leak Rate of 28.1

Hi - I am using the S9 - Collecting data.

I don't really stay awake most of the time. Sometimes yes. But not usually.

Hope this works.

The gaps are where I changed to the Res Master Auto A-flex M series machine because I thought the RS9 was malfunctioning.

Re: I need some help please - Exhausted with Leak Rate of 28.1

Ok I changes machines about 6 week ago when I woke up to my Resmed S9 blowing like crazy. I have the data from Sleepyhead, but it's from BEFORE January 23.

How do I attach the data or display it?

I need some help please - Exhausted with Leak Rate of 28.1

I feel terrible and panicky. My leak rate is 28.1. Says my apnea incident is 1.1 but I don't believe it. I use nasal pillows (for several years without a high leak rate). From this morning's research I'm concluding I am mouth breathing as I have woken up with my machine blowing like crazy and on occ...

Re: Feeling sad

Bottom line - the first night I used my machine I cried. Seriously. I thought, wow using this machine forever - sleeping with a vacuum cleaner on my face - just great! My sex life? Over. Well wrong on all counts. First, I still would not choose to use the machine. That said - It's wonderful to reali...
