OK folks, so I got a cervical collar and used it last night. I feel the same tiredness as usual this morning, my Philips software tells me I had a 0% "mask fit," and Oscar tells me I had -99% (yes, it is negative, whatever that means) large leaks. Do you guys think it could be my machine, which I've...

Many of us here on the forum use a firm, foam cervical collar to keep our mouths closed. You can also try using a chin strap. I tried three or four of them, but could not find one I could stand to use. Thanks-- do you happen to know if this is a good and comfy cervical collar (or do you have anothe...

By auto adjust I mean the pressure itself...not the exhale relief (C Flex) portion. The top line of 15. Your machine won't do it unless you happen to have some auto trial time remaining. Some of those System One machines had some limited trial in auto adjusting mode. The Pro model Respironics is es...

Ooops...I just now realized you are showing a fixed pressure machine in your profile. That won't help me with my curiosity.

Done, thanks. My machine was not in the list so I added it in the comment.

Hello, I've been a CPAP user since 2015 but never looked at my data myself until the last few days. I have a Philips System One and usually use a Fisher & Paykel Simplus full face mask. Looking at my data in both the Philips software and Oscar, I see that I have been having crazy large leaks all the...

Hello all After seeing the doctor he says I've had a good week with my AHI 6 days it's never been above 1 . But I'm o oh sleeping 4-5 hours a night which is not good, at that rate its going to be awhile before I start feeling better. He wants me to try a mild sleep aid.. Tradazone But when he told ...

Hello, I was recently diagnosed with moderate to severe sleep apnea. I guess it took me a while to fall asleep during that first sleep study, so my doctor prescribed Xanax for me to take during my upcoming CPAP titration study. However, I see in the literature that it's not recommended to take Xanax...
