The P10 was a failure - I used it until 5am and then switched to the full face mask which was much better (although the mask I can still feel the air leaking out the side and the front valve). The P10 feels very weird when I assume the pressure kicks in, it wakes me up - feels like the air forces in...

I was surprised how well some fitness trackers estimate sleep stages. I used a Zeo for several months, and found that I get similar results from my Misfit Flash. The results are not definitive, but may give you a ballpark notion of what is happening. Best part--some trackers are quite inexpensive. ...

Do you normally have poor sleep quality with a lot of wake ups...pre cpap? Yes - I literally never sleep through the night. Nightmares, large awakenings, many small awakenings that feel like apnea since I get these feelings/memories/dreams of choking and gasping. I can "sleep" for 10 hours and not ...

Shame there is not a home EEG test to track what stage of sleep we are in? (or is there one?) there's nothing on the consumer market today, though there are a few 'home brew' units that people are using, however, you can pick up a used zeo sleep monitor on ebay, (for a lot less than they go for new...

my AHI is 1.65 and yet I don't feel I slept that much different last night Which makes me think if I really have sleep apnea ! The AHI shown is the apnea events that the machine didn't prevent...we have no way to know how many it did prevent. You expected the overnight miracle? We all do but those ...

OK so I have my first results from Sleepyhead. They are a little worrying, since my AHI is 1.65 and yet I don't feel I slept that much different last night Which makes me think if I really have sleep apnea ! My obstructive index was 0.0, Clear airway 0.93 and hypopnea 0.62 :/ Although I do feel a li...

OK great, thanks. I'm super interested/terrified about whether the machine helps me. I saw a post of yours from June Pugsy in response to someone who thought they would be "fixed" from CPAP "Sleep maintenance insomnia...that's when we wake up during the night either often and/or have trouble going b...

We can help with the education on how to self titrate and come up with optimal pressures. As long as we don't have any complicating factors rear their ugly head it's fairly simple and chances of having a real ugly problem are relatively slim. Cross that bridge if it comes up. Obviously without the ...

Before cpap, I had multiple disturbing, bizarre nightmares every night. Now, hardly ever. Between that and the cessation of horrible headaches, falling asleep at work, and never feeling rested; I think I will keep it. I'm just waiting for my A-CPAP machine to arrive, but have had nightmares every n...

Hello again, tobysmith , That even though you start using your machine as soon as you get it, and even though you use the Sleepyhead software to guide you in getting the best out of it, that you continue to be an NHS patient . Yes, I will continue down the NHS route. The doc had fobbed me off so ma...

@rick blaine Hi tobysmith , Pugsy said: "[it] just takes a bit of education on your part." Perhaps I can help that along. 1. First, you don't say which part of the UK you live in. It can make a difference. London Hi tobysmith , 2. Second, about that done-at-home 'sleep study' (better to call it a'st...

the almost guaranteed way where you can avoid paying the taxes is to fly to the US, get the vendor to mail the item to your hotel, and u hand carry it back on the flight. Throw away any shipping boxes to avoid any questions at the customs. 1 machine should be fine, but 2 or more might invite some q...

I

Yes autoset

@pugsy I bought the s9 with humidifier and heated hose from secondwindcpap.com for $469.

Wroks out 40% cheaper than the Remstar 60 with the humidifier and heated hose from the UK including shipping

Thanks for your help!!

Luckily I import and export products to the UK so i know a bit about import duties: It seems that CPAP machines should be subject to zero import duty rate: Import tariffs are always a slightly grey (gray!) area since there is a qualitative choice. To me it seems that they would best fit within categ...
