Re: AHI of 3 is good...??

I convinced my doctor to get me the Dreamstation with the ability to read AHI. Every morning when I wake up it tells me my AHI is 3, give or take .2 or .3 My respiratory therapist said this was good, but I am still really tired. My AHI at diagnosis was 7, with 26 events during REM., which means my ...

Re: Resmed F20 (new)

Hello, I have just ordered the new Resmed F20 airfit from my cpap supplier. I am comfortable wearing a medium for the Resmed Quattro. I have heard that the new mask runs bigger? Would a large in the F20 be like a medium in the quattro? Also, has anyone liked or not liked the mask? Thanks in advance...

Re: ResMed Air Sense 10 question

I'm on MyAir web, and find it strange that it counts the time you remove the mask in the morning as a mask off. why? you're taking the mask off, aren't you?most don't wear it all day. Just because it counts it as a "mask off" event, and I usually get up once during the night to use the restroom, so...

ResMed Air Sense 10 question

I'm on MyAir web, and find it strange that it counts the time you remove the mask in the morning as a mask off. If I first turn the power off, then remove the mask, will I lose my sleep data for the night when I turn the machine back on?

Re: New to an AirSense 10 AutoSet

Most people require more pressure when sleeping on their back. I sleep on my back, in an adjustable bed, with my head and feet raised due to other medical conditions. I have found I do very well with a constant pressure of 20 cm water and 3 cm pressure support. It has been several years since I hav...

Re: New to an AirSense 10 AutoSet

New to an AirSense 10 AutoSet

I've been using the AirSense 10 AutoSet for just over a week now, so I'm new to seeing what my AHI is at home. I was formerly using the ResMed S9, not auto set. I've noticed my AHI seems to vary from 4.5 to around 10 or 11, so I think I need an adjustment again. I could be wrong, since the old machi...
