Re: Sudden increase in leak/ahi rate

I downloaded ResScan and it didn't have any detail data either :=(

Here is the detail of an OA - they all look like this on the flowrate graph- a sort of heartbeat pattern, then a flat piece and at the end of the flat piece the OA.

Re: Sudden increase in leak/ahi rate

Ok, so this is weird. If I go back to before the change, the days have no data. Here's the last 3 months:

And if I go to the last day of before it changed, I get this:

Re: Sudden increase in leak/ahi rate

I switched out the hose and it doesn't seem to be any better. I'm pretty sure the settings didn't get changed. I appreciate the suggestions! Here's my graphs from last night.

Sudden increase in leak/ahi rate

Hi! I seem to have a sudden issue with leaks & an increased AHI (and the consequential feeling awful), starting very suddenly on Feb 23. On Feb 22 my AHI was .32 and on Feb 23 2.93. My yearly AHI average (from the stats page of SleepyHead) is 0.71. Last 30 days it's 2.75 and last week 3.53. My leaks...

Hose Help

Hi! I have a resmed s9 and a mirage quattro mask. I just got a new hose, and when I fit it to the mask, I come across the same problem I've had every time - it slides off the trunk part of the mask whenever I move. Till now, my solution has been to put a bunch of tape around it. It occured to me yes...

Re: Would you read my graphs?

Thank you so much for taking a look. I'm glad there isn't something big I'm missing. I left the air conditioning on last night accidentally, and I noticed that a lot more water was used. I got the chin strap today, and I'll try that tonight and see if it's better. Just a series of experiments... Tha...

Would you read my graphs?

Hello & Happy Monday! I came here about 18 months ago, and all you lovely people helped me with getting set up. Now I'm back! I realized last week that I'm back to where I started. Even though I wear my mask religiously, I still wake up about every hour. I end up napping and least once and sometimes...

Re: After a year of CPAP.. still TIRED!

These parts: I became unable to process simple information, and faced difficulties completing very simple tasks. I cannot wake up happy. Always sleepy, always tired, always dizzy, and always angry. So I decided to find a solution. Yet, I am still facing the same problem I faced during the last 10 ye...

Well, I wouldn't go that far, but I'm glad they don't look like anything to worry about. Thank you for reassuring me!

Re: Help interpreting graphs....

Ah! I'm sorry - I'll get it right in a minute. I don't *think* I sleep on my back - I go to sleep and wake up on my side. During my sleep study, the lady told me that I didn't go back to sleep when I was on my back, which I think means I probably don't. I usually wake up dreaming, although once or t...

She tried to fob me off with an Escape, but thanks to you I knew that wasn't going to happen I asked her how she would know it was working, and she said 'we'll ask you', to which I pointed out someone on 3 different meds for mental illness, 2 of th...

Re: Need help with telling DME what I want/need

Thank you so much for all your guidance. I was so keen to get a machine and good night's sleep I would have done anything! I have a lot more information to be armed with tomorrow. I'm in San Antonio, should anyone be able to give me a DME recommendation. Thank you all - I'm sure I'll be back with mo...
