Re: First 30 days.

Thanks for the suggestion about the pillow. Sounds like the type of solution I will need. A friend of a friend uses one of those mouth guard type dental devices for snoring and claims its effective. Any opinion on those? I'm sure it depends on each person and the cause of the obstruction but what do...

Re: First 30 days.

Flags were on for that night. Last night I had AHI 1.67. Felt pretty good today. I guess for now I will continue trying to put something on my back in order to stay on my side all night. When I see the doctor I will ask him about increasing pressure so that maybe I can sleep on my back with fewer is...

Re: First 30 days.

I always fall asleep in the same position on my side, this is actually my preference as far as comfort. I know I snore much less on my side, but I roll onto my back during sleep and this is when the snoring is typically worse. I have been tying a hard plastic cup to my back with a pair of sweatpants...

Re: First 30 days.

The first one is from last night, I am posting it because 0.0 seems highly unlikely and unusual. Also I woke up around 5am to find that the air pressure seemed to cut off every 15 or 30 seconds, this happened maybe 6 times. It was as if something was blocking it for a second and then it would kick r...

Re: First 30 days.

Pugsy,

Thanks for the quick reply. I am at work right now (heh) but I will post some data this evening at home. I am assuming it would be wise to show a few nights with varying AHIs?

First 30 days.

Hello all, I have spent the last 30 nights with my first ever machine. I was diagnosed with OSA 6 or 7 months ago after a home sleep study and subsequent inpatient sleep study. My doctor pointed me in this direction after I complained to him about being extremely tired most of the time, as well as m...
