compliant 20 years Feel like a Newbie

Post by DaveL » Thu Dec 24, 2015 9:26 am

First my sleep doc retired! Thank heaven. Reading his reviews on ratemydoc was interesting. Time to find another sleep doc

I just purchased a new mask. It's a Respironics DreamWare. on good days it's perfect. On bad days, well, oh my

I have so much to learn

I have a good supplier.

Is there software that will allow me to see my sleep data? I have an iMac computer

Thanks!

Hi, Dave -

I replied to you on the other forum, but in case you check here first: You can use Sleepyhead to view your data.

Good luck getting the Dreamwear working for you! I love mine, but I know we're all different.

a better place to start with sleepyhead install :

https://sleep.tnet.com/resources/sleepyhead
If you're not part of the solution you're just scumming up the bottom of the beaker!

Get the Clinicians manual here : http://apneaboard.com/adjust-cpap-press ... tup-manual

I have sleepyhead up and running. I feel like I've finally joined the 21st century in cpap treatment. Thank you!

Thanks Cannuck 1

I asked my sleep doc what was new in cpap treatment. He said nothing. He said heated hoses... that's all

I got a heated hose fr the used cpap I bought. It has helped a lot.
I wonder what else he missed
