You don't say if you're male or female, but if male, have you been checked for possible prostate issues?

I'm a male

I have had it checked it before prior to my original sleep study

It's not a prostate issue......I literally drink that much water lol

Hey everyone, Looking for some help on this one Background: been on my cpap (Resmed 11) for a year and a half now. Everything has been going great until a few weeks ago. I normally sleep between 6 and 7 hours and get great quality sleep. My AHI dropped from pre-therapy of 65 down to 1 and normally m...

I appreciate all the responses in here

I am in the for the long haul so I definitely need to buy a used one and definitely back ups of everything since I currently don't have any

I tried the oral appliance. In order for it to work the top and bottom have to lock together and it will has to stay locked the entire night. I honestly don't know how any9be says it's an effective alternative to a CPAP. In my opinion the oral appliance is even more difficult to get used to it. Take...

As mentioned a backup of everything you need to sleep is the wise choice. As is getting the same model not only for ease of replacement supplies but so you already know how to operate it. Get a used cpap. If you are still in your compliance period you should (will) use that one until compliance is ...

I have been on my cpap (ResMed 10) for about 6 months now, and I can honestly say that I am so happy that I finally did this. I have become so used to the machine that I probably wouldn't be able to sleep without it anymore. It's a new machine so I know it will work for a long time. But it got me th...

Sounds like you are taking to cpap like a duck to water and also one of the overnight miracle success stories. People will hate you for that. :lol: :lol: Be aware that those tiny travel machines can be annoyingly noisy. I am sure you have read that complaint about them and the extra noise may or ma...

There is a better way and less work as well. You can get all that we really need in one screen shot...if we need anything else http://www.cpaptalk.com/viewtopic/t158560/How-to-post-images-for-review.html And on the graphs you have omitted the time from the start of the session at 00:04 until approx...

Capture7.PNG Ok thats all the data. I dont know if I screenshotted everything properly or if there is a better way. Honestly I wasnt sure if what I was doing was right. I am just up to almost two months on my Resmed 10. Its gone great and a I feel like a new person. To put into context I used to "s...

Pugsy tell me something.....what is the difference between "sleep apnea events" vs. AHI vs. Central AI vs. Total AHI? After 3 weeks of therapy my AHI is around 2 to 3 average. I will gladly take that right now since it's much lower than the 65-70 was experiencing before. I believe over the next yea...

Congratulations. Looks like you are going to be one of those "duck to water" people. FWIW...I am still waiting for the "change to a morning person" but it's something I joke about. I have never ever been a morning person and why I expected cpap itself to change me into something that I never was......

I am very happy to posting this After a full week with my ResMed 10 with heated hose I can honestly say I feel like a new person. I also have a full face mask from ResMed since I am a mouth breather. My sleep study showed my AHI was 65. I had a take home test and the data didn't fully show 4 hours b...

Attitude, attitude, attitude. The one thing that sometimes is really hard to fix when it is a negative attitude. I predict you will do very well and eventually using the mask and machine will just be a routine part of your day/night. If you look at the big picture it really is a rather benign way o...

I appreciate the help and will get the OSCAR going When I tried the dreamstation 6 years ago things were very different. I was very very angry that I had to sleep with a mask......thought my wife might make fun of me and think I was a loser......blah blah blah. I hated it and already was angry about...
