Re: Newbie.

I will try changing the setting. When I was in the hospital I was wiped clean of all meds. They think the BP med changes is what messed me up to begin with. I am not on any BP meds just the Buspar for anxiety. Hasn't kicked in yet though.

Yep....I am being wakened up by rapid heart rate etc. Mask was not comfortable some reason last night. I remember messing with it some last night. Going to try and up it to 6.5 or 7 and go to bed a lot earlier. Thank you again for all your advice. Sorry you had a crappy night.

Re: Newbie.

screenshot above didn't show the complete width of the graphs. Not sure how to reduce the graph in Sleepyhead so the afternoon nap doesn't show up.

I know taking naps during the day probably isnt good on some level because it could add to insomnia at night...but what about being on the APAP during the day for a little just to get some consistent air. I ask this because I tend to flare up into high ...

It mainly started when I had a daughter become ill 4 or so years ago and I was always on high alert for middle of the night wake ups from h...
