...jut a bit more on my recovery from 3rd sleep study (SS) in May and 1 June back surgery (spinal fusion L4/L5).
Good results on back surgery (2nd in 1 year); Doc pleased at 2-weeek checkup. Unfortunately the total disruption of my schedule of being in hospital 3 days and nights has left me with bad insomnia.
I finally actually got copy of (SS). I got a call from my local xPAP supplier, saying Dr had sent an RX for an APAP. I told them to keep it on file; and asked if I could get copies of the reports.
SS Baseline= severe OSA and CSA. AHI 69. PLM index 34. Severerely disrupted sleep architecture. 54% awake, 70% of sleep in stage 1, 30% in 2; no delta or REM. 54 sleep stage shifts over 2hr, 40min.
Titration 5:33 hr 71% sleep, 29% awake- still lousy. 200 sleep stage shifts w/ no Delta or REM. His RX 8-14 cm APAP.
So i'm getting much better leak control with the Quattro with the SleepWeaver Anew and alternate backup FitLife.

I like my ResMed AirFit F10 FFM - reasonably low leaks for my ASV therapy. I'm currently using a PR S1 AutoSV 960P Advanced. I also keep a ResMed S9 Adapt as backup. I use a heated Hibernite hose. Still rockin' with Win 7 by using GWX to stop Win 10.
