Here's a shot of several minutes where I think the machine records a couple of obstructive apneas (not totally sure that first OA isn't after an arousal) and then several central apneas and repeating areas of gradually decreasing flow and followed a sudden big increase. Are these true apneas? (I wat...

Thanks, Pugsy. I will watch the videos.

So here is my OSCAR information from last night. As you can see, I am not very good at keeping the mask on all night yet. That first little bit of information was a nap I took in the afternoon. Unlike the previous two nights, last night I didn't wake up early with high pressure making me feel choked...

I've got an SD card in the CPAP and a USBcard reader for my computer. I'm going to see if OSCAR can give me some insight into why I'm waking up after an hour with such high air pressure I can't exhale (last two nights). But it doesn't happen in the early morning hours. I had significant aerophagia l...

I was still a little sleepy when I got up, but my body felt rested instead of exhausted. The machine is reporting...

Thanks, shaggyzack. I've discovered there's no SD card in my machine. Can I just put any old one in there and use it to get the data?

Thanks, Zonker.

Last night was a little better, though I'd hesitate to say good. But at least I feel hopeful!

Thank you, Pugsy!

I'll take a look at the manual (getting some exhalation relief would be great!!) and also look into OSCAR.

I read some of the success stories, too. It's good to see other people had a rough start.

Hi, all, After five years of utter exhaustion, I was diagnosed with OSA. I did a home sleep study (doctor's preference to having me in the hospital during COVID concerns) which showed an AHI of 27.5. The doctor ordered a sleep study/titration at the hospital, but then I got a call saying insurance h...
