Re: new member CPAP stats

Re: new member CPAP stats

I will do the best I can with those reports. What are your pressure settings? Looks like auto mode with minimum of 4 and max of 8...is that correct? Do you often sleep on your back? While the AHI is acceptable....your snores (not part of the AHI) at times are a bit ugly. Which makes me wonder why o...

Re: Rethinking whether to get a CPAP

Hi guys, they gave me the AirSense10 now with a nasal and pillow masks to try. It seems perfect(as is, much more comfortable than the previous one) except one thing: the noise it makes when you breath. It seems there's a decent amount of noise coming out of the machine at night from the filter area....

Re: Rethinking wheather to get a CPAP

Thanks for all of the comments, a bit of updates: apparently I was getting that machine as it was considerably cheaper with my health care. Going back to return it today showed (as they have the software to read the SD card which I couldn't of done with SH) that my AHI was normal with the machine bu...

I'm currently on the clinic's 7 day trial for a cpap(JOYCE by WEINNMAN), and so far after about 5 days my sleep has been worse then usual. I wake up several times a night from moving around and when I wake up in the morning I'...
