Re: attempting to post SH data--first try!

I think I was lying on my back for the cluster around 4am. I can't remember specifically, but I might have been awake/half awake for the business starting around 6am. How are vibratory snores really measured? I ask because I frequently get a little moisture in the mask that kind of rattles, so I won...

Re: Awful Rainout Last Night

I'm having rain out issues too...last night I woke myself up a couple of times by blowing a spray of cold water on my arm. Fun! I have an upgrade kit/heated hose on the way for my system, so hoping that will help.

Best of luck!

attempting to post SH data--first try!

Re: Newbie questions! Respironics heated hose? Machine switch?

So, I ordered the upgrade kit/heated hose. It was cheaper to order it myself than to go through my DME. It should arrive early next week. I kind of can't wait...I'm still having some rain out and my sinuses are really unhappy. I downloaded Sleepyhead last night and managed to upload my first 5 night...

Re: Newbie questions! Respironics heated hose? Machine switch?

Thank you Pugsy! I have already read many of your posts, including the ones on rain out that you linked I checked out the upgrade kit and directions. It sounds pretty simple, and I'm usually pretty good with stuff like that. So I will give it a go. I don't think I can get insurance to cover it at t...

However, I still am feeling somewhat overwhelmed and I'm not sure if I should just batten down the hatches and stick with what I've got, or try to change som...
