Seemingly my aerophagia has been less painful recently perhaps my body is just not used to what’s happening. I am still monitoring. I bumped my start pressure up slightly to 8.4 cmH2O. I am curious what is the deal with hyponea and EPR? When it’s off I seem to get more of them than when EPR is on. M...

I’ve been taking it for about 2 years now. Originally I was on 2mg but that stopped working after some time I went to 4mg now on 5mg. I get 3 months worth at a time and it’s also prescription only in Australia so probably we are less likely to run out. I have to get it compounded because they don’t ...

Interesting if true. I take 5mg a night otherwise I cannot fall asleep or stay asleep.

Ah ok I think that makes sense. Here was last 3 nights with EPR off and 8-20 cmH2O Friday night (Hot kept waking up and couldn't get to sleep): 13112020.PNG Saturday night (woke up just after 8am and realised I had thrown my weighted eye mask across the room so I was moving around trying to find it ...

Thank you. I will try this last night with no EPR to see if it’s still the same tomorrow and if so turn it back on. Recommend would be setting back to 3?

Weird. It is backwards because it can go higher?

I really want this to work I am sick of feeling like a zombie continuously.

I see thank you. I am just going to see if I can last a week with no EPR to see what sort of results I get over that period. It’s definitely more comfortable with EPR on 3 than any other setting. One think I realised now when ramp was on originally it almost felt like I was suffocating or something,...

Ah thank you she said I would need to wait for the sleep doc if I needed a bipap or not anyway. The machines here I think still require a prescription to get from the sleep doc. I don’t actually know if she can read the reports or she just doesn’t care :( what else are bipap machines used for? I sle...

Thank you. I will try turn off EPR. I set ramp to 15 minutes with a start pressure of 8.0 cmH2O and will leave my pressure at 8-20 for now. I set EPR to ramp only. The flow limitation you can tell if the start pressure is enough? Last night was not great I think the mask kept sitting funny and leaki...

Thank you, I figured out how to get into it last time to change my EPR to 1. I was wondering if I should raise my low pressure slightly to something like 9 perhaps what do you think? Still feel exhausted really. I wake up and feel like going back to sleep, most of the day I think about how far it is...

I am in Australia. I will be attempting to manage my own now I guess. My appointment with the actual sleep doctor is not until around 20th Jan 2021.

She was nice but seemed clueless and to not really care as such. She said she doesn't need to see me for months now (Not that she did a lot anyway)

I saw the sleep lady today (the one at the CPAP shop) and she said my treatment is completely fine because my AHI is under 10 so that means I am fine now (I thought under 10 and over 5 would still mean I have mild sleep apnea? my week med would be 5.76 AHI). I asked her if my pressure or anything ne...

I put EPR down to 1 for the past 3 nights to see what would happen 9 Nov 09112020.PNG 10 Nov 10112020.PNG 11 Nov 11112020.PNG I think my hypopnea went up slightly. My stomach still feels a little bit odd. It doesn't feel any better or worse vs EPR of 3 I don't think. I might go back to EPR of 3. Tho...

I mostly seem to wake up from 6am > 10:30am and drift in and out of sleep I think, sometimes its hard to remember. I still feel exhausted I think, I usually get 3-4 hours into the day and want to pass out from being so exhausted. I realise my stomach feels a little full I don't know if maybe I am sw...

Had a few more nights, I asked if the lady could change me to auto with a higher pressure that 5-20 to see how that goes. She set me to 8-20 this time (I was on 8.6 fixed) Friday night 06112020.PNG Saturday night 07112020.PNG Sunday night 08112020.PNG My med pressure seems to be 9.3-9.46 now I guess...

I went to the sleep place to buy a chin strap and they gave me a resmed chin strap for free. Hopefully the leaks continue to stay low. Regarding the arousal followed by apnea is this something that would potentially go away over time? I see lots of people who post great results under 1 AHI and I won...
