Re: Please help with converting settings from Dreamstation to Aircurve

I know right? I think I just have about one more month to go to satisfy my requirements on the Philips through Medicare. I think after the three month point they don’t care what I do basically LOL. But quite honestly, the dreamstation has been working very well for me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapa...

Re: Please help with converting settings from Dreamstation to Aircurve

Thanks Dog! Yes it’s the VAuto! This is exactly what I wanted to know as it’s a great starting point because I know those pressures work. I will also tweak from there. Greatly appreciated!

Please help with converting settings from Dreamstation to Aircurve

Hello to all of you in CPAP land! Working hard at this and I have been getting my absolute best results now on my Dreamstation at the following settings: Auto CPAP Min 8.5 Max 13.0 with A-Flex level of 3. I now have a backup unit which is a Resmed Aircurve 10 Bi-level. I do not think I require bi-le...

This may be a stupid CPAP question but I am so curious...

Hello everyone. I am quite sure some of you can give me a good answer to this question! Occasionally I find myself using the CPAP, maybe for a nap or something, but for some reason I end up not sleeping. Either I read or I just lay there daydreaming or something. Then when I check my stats, my AHI i...

Re: Settings from Philips APAP to Resmed bilevel

So what are your guesses regarding what will happen using the new machine? I will try it tonight at PS 2 as a true BiPAP. I guess that could be a start, right?
Will my results be better, same or worse than the Dreamstation? No reason to believe there would be a higher AHI, right? What do you think?

Re: Settings from Philips APAP to Resmed BiPAP

No, not using flex. So how would that translate to this machine.
Thanks I think decent price. I can’t remember the exact hours but I approximated that it was close to a year. Not super low but not bad.

Re: OT: seasonal flu shots for those of us over 65

Got mine while I was in Walgreens a week ago or so. Totally fine, no pain, no side effects! I would certainly recommend it!

Settings from Philips APAP to Resmed bilevel

Hi all, as it turned out I was able to locate a "backup" machine here locally and bought it yesterday for $400 cash. Good price? I think so but if I overpaid by a bit it's fine. I bought a Resmed Aircurve 10 VAuto and it seems to work perfectly. My question is this: The settings that seem to work be...

Re: Do Any of You Have More Than One Machine?

Well as it turned out the person that had this for sale got real weird when she could tell that I knew what I was talking about! She said she decided to give it to her father in law. An hour earlier she told me that two others were interested and did I want it? I guess there are shady people even in...
