Re: Is it possible I was misdiagnosed and CPAP is just not for me?

Hi again!! So I've been sleeping with very similar settings for a while now and I do appear to be sleeping better. I've been sleeping alone lately and been taking Zopiclone AND been on vacation, so I've been sleeping full nights without waking up even once. I've been check the data in OSCAR every no...

Re: Is it possible I was misdiagnosed and CPAP is just not for me?

Oh I'm exactly the same when I talk about something I know a lot about. I'm a guitar teacher here in my town and I talk SO MUCH when teaching.. I over explain things and make comparisons and all.. so I totally get you! It's the same whenever I e-mail someone.. the other person's e-mails will be 2 li...

Re: Is it possible I was misdiagnosed and CPAP is just not for me?

Woah, that's a lot to answer ! hahaha! Actually marijuana is completely legal here, has been for a few years now so I could get CBD from the government managed cannabis stores here in Quebec (Much like our liquor stores are 'provincial'). I don't think there'd be any issue with the quality of the st...

Re: Is this Periodic Breathing & How can I Improve AHI (Centrals & Hypopneas)?

Wow... your issues seem pretty similar to mine... and you have the same sleep medication (Zopiclone)! For me it doesn't seem to make much of a difference but I'll try it with my new settings on the CPAP. Maybe you could read my thread here : https://www.cpaptalk.com/viewtopic/t182687/Is-it-possible-...

Re: Is it possible I was misdiagnosed and CPAP is just not for me?

Yeah, thanks for sharing!! I hope your pain improves... or should I say worsens haha! Actually I can't ask for a study, it has to be requested by a doctor or else it costs A LOT, 1000$ and more... I'll have to wait for the sleep lab study. I don't think they do the type of home study you'd want, but...

Yeah, I remember being awake almost all night long and I feel like crap today!

Screw that! I couldn't put all the screenshots in one file, so I uploaded it all to Google Drive, here's the link : https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1YRaxfMl3l86pHxC93tMIFUsyQDpC3hPw?usp=sharing There's one where it pointed ''important obstruction with snore'' and the ''HRVAS'' one or somethin...

Re: Is it possible I was misdiagnosed and CPAP is just not for me?

Thanks again Pugsy!! I tried the same setup a second night and I feel like I slept pretty crappy.. no idea why though! I made a huge image with many many screenshots all in one image so you can really see what's going on. At least with these settings (and still using tape, no clue if I need it or no...

Re: Is it possible I was misdiagnosed and CPAP is just not for me?

Yeah, those were my thoughts too when looking at the chart! Actually I did zoom a lot more but I tried to include more in less pictures so I wouldn't upload like 15 images :D But yeah, I noticed very few of the OA events seem 'real'. So, for now you suggest we keep the same settings? Also, how zoome...

Re: Is it possible I was misdiagnosed and CPAP is just not for me?

Alright, so here's the full chart and a few examples of arousals and flagged events. The full chart is a bit chaotic because I had used the CPAP earlier the same day, and then I tried sleeping again a bit after initially waking up... but the stops (except for one) aren't proper stops in the use of t...

Re: Is it possible I was misdiagnosed and CPAP is just not for me?

Pugsy, I'm sorry for all your problems :/ I did have Covid (tested positive) back in October but I don't think I have any sequels, but I'm less than half your age so... I guess that explains it. I also understand about waking up from pain as I have a herniated disk in my neck, but for the past two y...

Re: Is it possible I was misdiagnosed and CPAP is just not for me?

I have a prescription for Zopiclone that I take every now and then but it doesn't seem to help, but that's probably due to me sleep being disturbed by the CPAP. Do you know anything about Zopiclone? I realized I had Benadryl laying around so I just took a good 100mg right now just before bed.. we'll...
