Auto Ramp on Airsense 10

So I have discovered that I am waking up about 4 hours into the night. I end up getting up to go to the bathroom and my machine automatically turns off. When I return to bed and try to go back to sleep Auto Ramp starts up and I find it really hard to go back to sleep at that point at the lower press...

Re: Crazy headache

Sorry, didn't answer all of your answers. I am a stomach sleeper, and I do find myself waking up at night when I feel a leak to readjust which is more than annoying and can't be any better than the actual apneas. As far as stiffness, or neck pain, none. I did sleep on my side last night to try and r...

Re: Crazy headache

The doctor put me at a set 8 pressure level. When I looked at My Air on the Resmed site this morning my AHI was an avg of .9 per hour, so less than one. I started at 27/hour. I am not sure how to check the full report from my unit yet.

Crazy headache

So I just started my therapy two nights ago. Both mornings I have woken up with the worst headache in the world. I had never had them before this, so I am kind of at a loss. I noticed most had headaches before starting therapy, and they went away. Is it possible my machine is giving me a headache? L...

Re: Nasal Pillow Mask Users!!

I guess what I am trying to describe as a "stream of air straight into the nose" is because in the pillow mask, it was like ear buds that go into the nostrils so the air is actually coming through the small holes in these "nasal buds" so to speak. The full nasal mask the air comes into the part that...

Re: Nasal Pillow Mask Users!!

Thanks for the advice!! I was sent home with both of the masks from my study, so I do have them both as back ups so am thinking I should try something different just to see. It makes me wonder though, if my nose was just sensitive that day or something. I for sure could feel the air. I wonder what t...

Nasal Pillow Mask Users!!

So, I am going in for my mask fitting and to get my machine in 13 days. I am super excited but still so confused at the same time. Here's why: So when I had my Titration part of my sleep study, they initially gave me a nasal pillow mask, the Airfit 10 for her. So I initially thought, wow... ok, I co...
