Re: Switch from Airfit F30 to P10 AHI increase

OK so just to follow up on this. I tried another night with the P10 on Friday and I am 100% sure mouth leaks are the issue. Woke up multiple times due to that. So I'm giving up on the P10. I bought some KT tape to try but honestly it just feels unsafe to tape my mouth closed. I got the Amara View he...

Re: Switch from Airfit F30 to P10 AHI increase

Yeah I figured that was probably the case about the dreams. I'm going to give it another night or 2 with the pillows. I have some tape for my mouth too so I'll give that a go and see what happens. In any case I've ordered an Amara View headgear from amazon for the F30 as I hear it's better than the ...

Re: Switch from Airfit F30 to P10 AHI increase

Thanks I didn't know about SleepHQ until today so will upload my data when I get home Im not sure if I'm waking up more or less tbh my sleep is interrupted somewhat most nights anyway. But I have definitely been spending more time in bed since switching, and have noticed my dreams are more vivid and...

Re: Switch from Airfit F30 to P10 AHI increase

Keep forgetting to add - I found a little hole in the end of my tubing which I imagine is contributing somewhat to the overall leak rate. I will be using a fresh tube from tonight so we'll see how that goes

Re: Switch from Airfit F30 to P10 AHI increase

So basically I tried a bunch of masks when I originally got the machine, including the P10, but settled on the F30 as it gave me the best results. My F30 headgear is a bit worn out and have always found it a bit of a nuisance to get a good seal anyway and as I had the P10 still I decided to give it ...

Switch from Airfit F30 to P10 AHI increase

Hi all I recently switched from the F30 to the P10 nasal pillows as I find them more comfortable to wear, but my AHIs have jumped up from around 1 up to about 6 AHI. It's been just short of a week and most of the new events are listed as Central Apneas. I was feeling pretty exhausted earlier in the ...

Re: [SALE] Resmed Airfit F30

If you are able to post to the UK and I can afford to cover the cost it I would be eternally grateful. Still struggling with my Mirage Quattro and cannot afford anything else!

Re: Midifinol, Melatonin and CPAP and Autistic

Just to be clear did you mean modafinil (i.e. provigil)? If so I have used it myself to little real effect. Keeps me awake but doesnt do much to kill the tiredness. Also made me quite highly strung and led to some depression. Your bio says you are using APAP but with fixed pressure at 13? Im no expe...

Re: Apnea Clusters?

I am a bit surprised by how little your pressure setting adjusted considering the number of hypopneas and apnea cluster. Curious if those with more experience feel the same way? Is that to do with it being an older machine that doesn't adapt as quickly as the new ones do? Seems like it would help i...

Re: Apnea Clusters?

Thanks - I think you are probably right about the REM thing as I never really sleep on my back. Pretty sure I woke up with a start last night as well whilst dreaming so that seems to add up. Have increased my minimum pressure to 11.4 now so hopefully that will help. I'm wondering as well if my mask ...

Apnea Clusters?

Hi, Just wondering if anybody thinks this is normal or has any idea what might be causing it. Since switching from nasal pillows to a full face mask my AHI has gone down dramatically and I feel better for it however am still getting quite tired later in the day (from about 1pm onwards). Have stopped...
