Notice the light blue line: "Sessions exist for this day but are switched off". go down to the bottom of the left panel and switch them back on.
The session info in my screenshot is the only info I see, nothing more and it's checked.

Re: New Cpap

Just made that same leap as you did, System One for 5 years and I had my first night of sleep with the AirSense 10 Auto yesterday and here are my impressions: It's so quiet The auto setting seems to have taken care of most of my aerophagia issues Switched mask from a Mirager Quattro to an AirFit F20...

Re: New machine and mask

When I started CPAP therapy over 5 years ago, it probably took me 3 months to get used to it; finding the right mask and how to adjust it properly for you is key. Maybe the dreamwear just isn't for you, have you tried others?

Re: Curious about cleaning

I have a box of generic Kirkland baby wipes next to my bed, so I usually wipe my cushion once a day, sometimes once every 2 days and wipe the whole mask probably once a week; I never cleaned the headstrap (but usually end-up replacing it every 4-6 months as it stretches); the humidifier chamber I cl...

Oscar doesn't display new machine date

Hi, I finally got my new APAP machine yesterday ResMed AirSense 10 AutoSet; this morning I imported the data in Oscar and was able to view it, but then I closed my session and when I reopened it, nothing, I don't have any data for yesterday evening. Is there anything special I'm supposed to do when ...

Re: Could use some guidance regarding results

Thank for the tip, but I'm actually in Quebec, here it's not covered by the public system ever, not even a basic CPAP (kind or ridiculous if you ask me) but I have very decent insurance through work so I believe if I can get my Dr to just write the right explanation as to why it's need a BiPAP or an...

Re: Could use some guidance regarding results

Zenthar, it sounds as though lying on your back leads to OAs and snores. You don't want to make yourself miserable trying to stay on your sides, but it's worth asking yourself how difficult that would be. Some people do manage it without too much trouble. You might also want to keep some notes abou...

Re: Could use some guidance regarding results

The OP here...using the DreamStation Pro which does have a trial of auto mode available. That's where I would go here and see just how high the machine needs to go to deal with the obstructive stuff and what happens to the belly issues. I don't know if the OP is comfortable going that way though. I...

Re: Could use some guidance regarding results

Zenthar, there’s a lot of clustering in you OAs and snores. Did you go to sleep on your back last night? I probably did yes, and I know I move during my sleep as I sometimes wakeup on one side, sometimes on the other and sometimes on my back. I think the aerophagia might have made it worst as I thi...

Re: Could use some guidance regarding results

Hi, on a plain cpap just because that is what my Dr prescribed after the brief at-home test and titrations; moreover insurance won't cover BiPAP or APAP unless justified by a doctor. Perhaps just letting him know about aerophagia would be enough, I'll have to call him this week. Regarding the surger...

Could use some guidance regarding results

Hi everyone, I've had a CPAP for probably close to 6 years now (might be due to change machine soon actually) with somehow "mild" success and I wouldn't even know where to start looking for things to talk to my doctor about. First off, my AHI usually oscillates between 5 and 12, with no clear patter...
