Please read regarding monitoring...

Post by ousleep2 » Sat Sep 04, 2010 8:18 pm

I am looking to purchase a S8 data card reader and know you can not purchase from RESMED any longer. Would any of the people that upgraded to the S9 that have the S8 reader like to sell to me?
If so please message me. I would really like to monitor my nightly readings.

Does anyone have this reader for sale as I do not want to pay over $120 and shipping from Australia.

I am a newbie and did not know any better to ask until AFTER my 30 days were up for switch outs as I was just getting use to the machine. Could my doctor change the script now so I have to have one or a machine like the S9 where I can with he SD card?

I am currently keeping the limited track of my numbers through the clinical menu and slight tweaks have lowered my AHI's to from 5.3 to 4.1. One would think it is to EVERYONE'S benefit for those that are active to follow their numbers to make slight tweaks. Unfortunately I am on medication that makes SA worse so if my med changes the SA will or could get worse. That is why I want to monitor more frequently.

Hi, sorry I can't help with the reader, but do you understand that it's the software that you'll need to be able to track your progress (the reader is just the little 'interface' between the machine and your computer. I hope you find what you need!
