I think it might be working....

Post by chief900 » Tue Aug 24, 2010 7:15 am

Hi,

Just a not to say that i think that this is CPAP business is starting to work!

Initially i had some problems with mask, after i changed to this mirage number its super comfortable ! no leaks and no marks on my face. The next thing i did was lower the epr level to 1 from 3. and i seem to have brought my AHI down to 2 or below from around 7! last night it was only 0.7.

I think i am actually starting to benefit, i am feeling a bit more energy and i am being nicer to people around me instead of being mr grouch.

Cant wait to see what happens over the next couple of weeks!

see ya and thanks for all the help so far !

Chief
