[b ]Hey Everyone. Sorry for the late reply. [/b] The sponsor of this message board....cpap.com Thank you LSAT! ------------------------------- Are you wanting to use your insurance in lieu of payment out of your own pocket? That's what it sounds like to me but wanted to make sure. Thank you Pugsy fo...

Hello Everyone, I try to keep extra parts on hand when the sleep company that supplies me doesn't send me the replacement parts on time etc. I was wondering what online retailers etc that you guys can recommend that has good prices, reliable, parts that have the manufacturer retail packaging and etc...

Finding the right mask is probably the hardest part of this therapy...can't get anything done when we are fighting the mask and thus no chance of feeling better. When you get time please update your equipment profile to show the DreamWear mask ...it will avoid potential confusion later. Agreed! Don...

Hello Everyone, I have an update here. I was able to get some resolve here. Not 100%, but much much better. I was able to get a new mask called the Respironics DreamWear Nasal CPAP Mask and update my settings on my machine to get more air flow. Once that was done, the next day I felt much better. Di...

The System One Resistance settings are mainly for Respironics masks. In general when using a non Respironics mask we are told to turn off the Resistance Control setting which would mean a setting of 0. I don't think that the Resistance setting is the issue and it would be difficult to match up your...

One more thing Pugsy, Do you think an ASV machine is the wrong machine to use? Maybe I should get or use a regular CPAP? I thought about that. maybe I am wrongly diagnosed. That is food for thought.

If you feel that PS of 4 or 5 simply isn't moving enough air then do chat with your doctor about it because there could be some sort of underlying lung issue going on. I am not saying that there is...just that it is possible because most people find 4 to 5 PS very comfortable and when someone doesn...

Thank you Pugsy for your information. I have taken note of what you asked and mentioned here in your post. I will be asking my doctor on Friday. I tried the 7 to 7.5 minimum EPAP and PS minimum of 4 and it seemed like not enough air for me to breathe. I don't think those settings is good for me. I d...

Any problems etc. please let me know and I will do my best to correct.

Thank you for any help you can give. Hope everyone is having a blessed day!

Hi, I know you said that you weren't taking any meds but I just wondered if the acid reflux and anxiety that you listed as suffering from, might possibly be attributing to your lack of sleep? Have you talked to your doctor to see if treating these, even for a short time, might help with getting mor...

Hey Everyone,

I have first part of documents for you to view. Please click on this link to view them. http://1drv.ms/1GRnpMS

I will now work on the machine reports. This could be a day or so, but hopefully sooner.

Thank you all for your help. I do appreciate it.

You're already getting the best advice, so I'll just say "welcome"! You can get the help you need here. People will need to see the data recorded by the machine - check out pugsy's SleepyHead post at the very top of the forum. You only need to understand it enough to download and install the softwa...

The AHI is a little higher than what we would like to see so we really need to see what the AHI is made up of....so that's why we need the software reports. Before we can offer any ideas we really need the detailed data from the software reports. Did you have an in lab sleep study with a machine to...

Until you have the software up and running how about posting the limited data on the machine's LCD screen? If you don't know about the data on the LCD screen or it isn't accessible (has to be set to "Show AHI" for you to see it...check out this link and the video. http://www.apneaboard.com/pr-syste...

Nothing at all is showing in your profile..now I know the machine link is broken but the humidifier and mask should show up. Did you click submit after making your choices? If it won't show up...just manually add to the comments section. You can keep it brief...it's PR S1 960 ASV model. I don't kno...
