Re: High AHI numbers

Thanks again to all of you who tried to help.

I have also developed swelling in my eyes and cheeks. My right eye is almost swollen shut.

I tried. I really did. I'm done. I'm gone.

I set it back to 11 and it was slighly easier to exhale but the AHI didn't come down any. After 6 weeks of this I'm about ready to qui...

High AHI numbers

I'm on my 5th week of using a CPAP machine and my AHI numbers are still running 10-14! (sleep test high of 62) The Resmed 10 Auto was dumping up to 19 cm air pressure into me. I was changed over to a Resmed AirCurve 10 Auto BiPAP machine and my AHI number are the same! The BiPAP machine says it's pu...
