Yes I'm aware of the need for personalization, but I'm just looking for a starting point. I would love to hear what people actually use successfully to side sleep. I have had enough fails with therapy right now that I'm feeling completely discouraged and really need something to work. I've been tryi...

This is a big help. What kind of buckwheat pillow did you use? How big? Amazon has many different brands and sizes! Did you go big so that it extended the length of your back or use a regular pillow size? Did it improve your AHI due to OSA?

So, if I have mostly OAs with ASV compensating for the CAs, maybe I should add a positional helper so that I can stay on my side? Has anyone any suggestions about things that can help maintain a side sleeping position? Has anyone used one with some degree of success?

Well, a second night on these new settings was even worse. I had to nap yesterday because I felt so drained. 6 hours per night on the machine and I still feel like something the cat dragged in. Is 2 nights enough to go back to the sleep doc and say "hey, this doesn't work either!"? http://i.imgur.co...

Anyway, went to see the sleep doc yesterday and he changed the settings on my ASV as the previous settings yielded double digit AHI readings Here are the newest settings: http://i.imgur.com/mjnkNK9h.jpg Here is last night's data: http://i.imgur.com/KIfqulph.jpg Any comments? Should I just go back fo...

Thanks for the help. It feels like a pretty steep learning curve when you're new to this, and I really appreciate you guys taking the time to help!

Sleepyhead indicated that I have a problem with leak rate but I have 0% large leaks. Huh? I obviously don't understand the terminology. What's the difference? How does this effect my machine's ability to treat my apneas? Thanks for any help to clarify this.

I wish I knew so that I could get there again, but I can't think of a single thing that was different. Same meds, same effort to stay on my side, same bed, same pillow- nothing stands out as being different, just feeling like I'm getting teased by the whole thing: nyah, nyah see how much better you ...

Thanks for all the help! This has been a very discouraging journey since I started it in May. This forum has been so helpful and supportive though (especially Pugsy!). I don't know how I could have managed without you guys. The last comment I have about the data is that I don't understand what happe...

Max EPAP stayed at 15 all 3 settings. Only night below 5 was Sept. 8. Next closest was Sept. 5 at 5.95. I have no data prior to September 2 for unknown reasons. Okay here's the raw data and summary: Sept. 2 AHI: 9.72 (OA 4.86 H 3.69 CA 1.17) Sept. 3 AHI: 7.70 (OA 2.65 H 3.45 CA 1.59) Sept. 4 AHI: 8....

Thanks for the tips on display. Still learning the ropes (while semi comatose!)
Here's the same one again without the pie chart

Here's the very best night I had with the second setting. When I looked back, there was no data available from the first setting (used only 21/4 nights). Maybe the sleep center deleted it???

Here are the settings, original and changed: http://i.imgur.com/tDQ2TJbh.jpg The original settings were set because of a sleep study with an ASV in a sleep center. The first time the settings were changed I had intensely painful aerophagia (9 out of 10 pain scale, no kidding!) Second change came aft...

I would love some help interpreting this data. When you look at it, what do you think is happening? I haven't had a single AHI in the single digits for almost a week now. I'm getting more and more discouraged, please help!

Finally got Sleephead installed (Norton no longer flags it, so hubby got it done today!). Anyway, I wanted to see what the heck is going wrong. I'd love some help getting a handle on this, so I'll try posting data from SH. (Please be tolerant of a newbie, I'm learning as fast as a sleep deprived zom...
