AHI way too high for me...not normal

My numbers have been a lot higher than normal! I live in a rural area and my sleep doctor left. I am using a BiPap and my settings are at 12 and 5. I've tried adjusting them, using the humidifier, etc. I'm starting to get worried. I tried to attach my sleep report but it says invalid file extension....

Excruciating gas pains

Hi everyone! Lately I have been experiencing terrible gas pains the next morning after using my cpap machine, even with low AHI.

Re: second sleep study?

Lights are out at 10pm and I get up for work at 5:45am. I usually wake up around 4am and take my mask off....I just really want to sleep on my belly for the last hour or so This is a habit I need to break and then maybe my tiredness will go away *wishful thinking

Re: second sleep study?

It looks good when you are using it. It looks like most months you only use it between 1/2 and 2/3's of the nights. What is getting in your way of using it more often? I was going through some major personal issues and just didn't bother using it. Bad excuse but it's the truth. Things have worked o...

Re: second sleep study?

Hi, a couple of things - are you not using software to track things? You have a machine that should give you lots of info without having to ask your doctor and if you can upload a graph or two (use Photobucket and then a link) maybe we can get an idea of what's happening. . http://i1376.photobucket...

second sleep study?

Hi everyone...newbie to this sight. DX with OSA two years ago. I recently started seeing a new sleep Dr due to moving. I went to see him because I have been sooo tired. My pressure was 14 when I first saw him. He changed my machine to auto-set (5-15) which did not help. I am now at 10-20, and I am s...
