New titration study. Numbers way up!!

Post by bfreier » Fri Oct 07, 2005 3:43 pm

I had a UPPP last June. I recently had repeat studies done and my recommended pressure went from 8 to 18...Has anyone ever heard of that happening? I don't know how I will be able to handle pressure like that.

How did they explain that happening to you? I would think that you would have gotten SOME relief from the UPPP. Did they give you any reason why the need for such an increase in pressure is after the surgery? Sounds like you may need to go on bi-level therapy instead of a straight cpap.
