SD Error Machine Won’t Work
I’ve been using my ResMed AirSense 10 for about 2 1/2 months now and since I started I’ve had the ResMed SD card in it. It was brand new when I put it in and just last night it’s saying preparing SD card and won’t go off that screen and therefore my machine won’t turn on or go any further unless I t...

Re: Blindsided by the machine
That makes sense. Can anyone tell me how to get the real manual for the ResMed AirSense 10, I know you said apnea board but I still can’t find it.

Re: Blindsided by the machine
Did you have a titration study where they figured out what your setting should be? I got my first machine earlier this month and I knew nothing as well and kept getting the waking up feeling like I could breathe also. I got got the under water feeling so I turned the humidity down and the heated tub...

Confirming OSCAR Stats
I attached a photo. Since I’m just doing this for the first time, I just want to make sure I’m understanding this correctly. This was my data from last night. My pressure is set for a range from 7-15. So how I’m reading this is - my minimum pressure was 7 and the max it had to go to last night was 1...

Re: Endoscopy with Sleep Apnea
I assumed that even though you may not be officially asleep, that your airway may still close since you are so out of it.

Endoscopy with Sleep Apnea
I will be getting an endoscopy and colonoscopy tomorrow and I’m terrified. Not of the test themselves but worried how it’s done considering I have sleep apnea. They know I have it but nobody explained to me how it’s done and the person that was supposed to call me never called so I’m just sitting he...

DME Companies
The DME company that I got my machine from is really lacking in customer service and when I talk to a respiratory therapist with said company, they act as if answering questions is a bother. My machine was paid for by my insurance company 100% but I was never told the details, not sure if they pay s...

Re: Are Most People on Auto?
Well the sleep doctor put in the order for the APAP for 5-15 and I was told it will take 48 hours to set it by the DME so I just changed it myself and wow!!! 5 and even 6 does feel like suffocating. So I just set it 7-15 since 7 has been my fixed pressure. I noticed the suffocating feeling was only ...

Re: Are Most People on Auto?
Pugsy I literally just sent you a PM! Thanks for your reply. Do you think it’s odd the sleep doc put it down to 5 when my fixed was 7?

Re: Are Most People on Auto?
Thank-you Den. I was really worrying about the change for the minimum to 5 as well since it was a fixed 7. I remember during my titration study when I used a cpap for the first time I felt like I couldn’t breathe and that was at a 4 or 5. Any idea why a sleep doctor would even do that?! My sleep rep...

Are Most People on Auto?
Hello everyone. Just wondering if most people are on auto pressure (sorry not sure of exact name) with a range or one fixed pressure. Just wondering why somebody may be on one fixed pressure as opposed to a range. I have the ResMed AirSense 10. My primary care doctor had me on a fixed pressure of 7 ...

Re: Super High Heart Rate With Sleep Apnea Scared
From someone who worked in teaching hospitals all my life I'll just say that one cardiac symptom is not enough to diagnose anything, apnea or otherwise, and you need more input from MDs, not random patients, whether or not some have had similar symptoms. I’ve had a full work up from my cardiologist...

Re: Super High Heart Rate With Sleep Apnea Scared
You need another doctor or a referral - no MDs here. Not really asking for medical advice just asking if anybody else has experienced that. I do have a cardiologist and my heart was tested I was even on a heart monitor and everything is fine I just think it’s crazy that in my case at least it was a...

This has been every night prior to being on cpap.
