In my opinion it probably depends on which stage of your sleep cycle you're in when your alarm goes off. If you're in the "wrong" stage, you won't feel rested. Den . Interesting.. But I have no control over what cycle I am in though? I guess going to bed at 9:30 or 9:45 and getting up, I am going t...

Hi Ya'll, LTNS! 1. i don't use an alarm any more. (i just put this in there to make others jealous!) 2. we don't sleep the same way every night. 2a. having said that, it's always best to keep to the same sleep routine every night. I am kind of loving this getting up early :) I've been keeping my 10...

Hi Ya'll, LTNS! I am wondering if anybody else on this message board has this problem: there are weeks that I can get up as soon as the alarm goes off ( The last 2 days I've been able to ) Then there's weeks that I go into this, the alarm goes off and I roll over and doze back off for 15 min. The la...

I think I got it... I think the gold bar on the bottom of the SD card goes in facing up and the label should be facing down. Because I just tried again with that configuration and I got this pop up when I inserted the card into the reader and then inserted the reader into the USB slot on my tower! *...

This is the only option I get:

If I hit the open button on that dialog box I get screenshot 2

I don't understand why the card is not being read? I was able to import data into Oscar back in May?

Hi Ya'll, I am having a problem getting Oscar to import MORE data into Oscar. The last time I used Oscar was back at the beginning of May it says. * I put my card into my reader * opened Oscar and hit IMPORT DATA ( the button in the middle of the screen) it says its importing data but then a box pop...

Remembering a lot of dreams isn't really a good thing. It means you are waking up often during the dream long enough to form a memory. Waking often isn't a good thing at all. The lack of remembering dreams doesn't mean you aren't having them ....just means you aren't waking up so many times which i...

Well its been about 2 or 3 weeks since the sleep study and the pressure changes, and I miss the Vivid dreaming. I use to be able to see and hear in my sleep what was going on in my dreams. And now that i've had my pressure changed I really don't have the vivid dreams anymore its just black now. So i...

I just got home from my study and the nurse said I moved my legs like 126 times ( I've never been diagnosed with RLS. I dont have burning or tingling in my feet and legs) and 26 times it sort of brought me out of a deep sleep. ( she said that wasn't bad). I guess she's seen worse Lol. I had a few ap...

UPDATE: I saw the nurse today and she said the reason because of the 9 CM difference was because it was adjusted due to covid or something like that. I guess to where I wouldn't have to constantly be coming to the office? No adjustments to my machine were made today. I have to have a "Titration" tes...

So today is the day of my appointment. I just downloaded all of my Oscar data and wrote down my AHI's for the whole month of April and for the 1st 2 days of May. I counted up that I had 14 days that I had AHI's over 5 in April. I am going to bring up everything that has been said on this thread to h...

UPDATE: So the nurse called me back yesterday and I have an appt on 5/3 to talk to the NP about my AHI being so high. But its weird everything is back to normal now. My AHI was 1.x something yesterday and 3.2 today. I am still going to keep the appt and talk to the NP about why my AHI shot up for a ...

So I just now got off the phone with the nurse. She sounded very confused about OSCAR and cpaptalk.com I tried to explain that bugsy read my data and read to her what bugsy wrote and tried to explain how OSCAR works and how it reads data off of that SD card. She sounded very confused lol. ( she soun...

Don't worry about minor differences between what the machine shows for AHI and what OSCAR reports. That's just a rounding up or down thing. Do you have any issues with your lungs??? Like COPD or other respiratory problems??? The bulk of your AHI increase is in the number of central apneas....and yo...

Go to the main overall statistics page and get a screen shot of the entire page in one shot....and make sure to include the changes to prescription section that is down towards the bottom of the page. You will likely need to scroll down a bit and will cut off some stuff on the very top but that's o...
