So I'm starting my second night! Last night I had quite a lot of anxiety and felt like I wasn't getting enough air, but this was before I tried to go to sleep. I spent several hours in bed watching tv with the cpap to tame the anxiety. I checked the mask fit several times and played with the machine...

Last night was my first night on a cpap machine and I am really thankful I picked the Dream Wear mask. I loved it so much and had zero trouble keeping it on! Not bad for my first night. I hope everyone can find a mask as wonderful and I hope you sleep well with yours tonight!

Ok thanks! It is getting easier until I freak out, lol! I'm really glad I decided to wear it for a few hours before trying to sleep. Starting to relax

You all are so amazing and kind! I can't put into words how much I appreciate the support! Especially because I know that here, a "good night" wish means so much more than it does to most people.

Good night to you all!

Thank you, Mary-Ellen! I'm so grateful you pointed me here!

EPR is set at three. It's still annoying, but I think I can handle it except sometimes my ears are popping. I don't know if it's my anxiety level, but I also feel like I'm not getting enough air and I'm inhaling really hard. Pressure is set to be between 7-15 and I'm watching tv with it on and it's ...

Ok, so I got a res med airsense 10 Autoset machine. I forgot to ask why it wasn't a For Her model, but the person who helped me said that my doctor is always very clear what he wants for his patients and they had everything programmed where the doctor wanted it before I even got there. After talking...

Ok, so score is determined by episodes per hour?

I wondered why the dr. office stated a 20 minute period. Does that mean out of the whole miserable night they only picked 20 minutes of data to review?

Thank you both SO much for your replies! I'm hoping once I meet with the person where I'm getting my machine they will be able to give me a lot better information and explanations than the doctor has given me so far I will definitely make sure I get what you have suggested. I can't tell you how much...

Hi, my name is Kim and I am to pick up my machine today, plus pick out the mask, etc. I don't know much about my diagnosis because I did a home study with a janky machine that had pinched tubing. I fixed the tubing, but don't have a lot of faith in the results. Anyway, the doctors office left a mess...
