Re: resmed escape error messages

try separating the humidifier from the machine and plugging it in. That worked for me. I finally was able to put it all back together and it worked. I think some water may have spilled into unit. not sure.

Re: airsense 10 and sinus pain

so I would like to help those of you who may be having issue with nasal congestion that you feel only occur during CPAP use. My issue was so bad, I had to use my inhaler just to breathe and I don't ever have to use it, unless I have an allergic attack brought on by dust mice or dog dander. After cle...

Minute Ventilation

I've been a CPAP user, Autoset, Resmed S9, for over 10 years. Today I noticed I had an event for 42 seconds. A closer look show that there was no flow-limitations...however the minute Ventilation dropped as low 3.38 to 0.00. from what I can comprehend on my own. I am not breathing deeply. Am I getti...

Re: Pillar Implants??? what is the verdict

I had the procedure done about 11-12 years ago. My mom had it done at the same time as well. It helped me a little at first, but ultimately I wasn't impressed. My mom had horrible snoring (wake you up through a closed door at the other end of the house loud) for as long as I could remember and it h...

Re: How to change the S9 clock?

yes, I recently moved to Ukraine and had to figure it out.... unlock your CPAP, go to OPTIONS and there a select date and time.
Just incase you don't know how to unlock...press the right large button and bottom smaller button(the one with 2 check marks)
at the same time and hold for 3-seconds.

Re: anyone can interpret reports

that's what I would have thought as well. I have tried a setting of 11.0 however, I don't sleep well. I have dreams about being chased.
I think that my pressure is mixed. that towards the 4am timeframe I need 11.0...but in the beginning it's lower around 8.6.
but I will give it a try.

thanks

Re: anyone can interpret reports

thanks so much....not sure why I waited so long to reach out for help. The doctors here in SC are trained in Sleep disorder but their medical field is else where. They know that there's lots of money and low processes. They send you for a study, go by the report, write an order for a CPAP and hope t...
