Problems with Resmed autoset 10

Post by Brianws » Sun Nov 01, 2015 11:08 am

I have had my resmed autoset 10'since April and have no problems with it until the past couple of weeks. I get a error message duri g he night the the tube is blocked when it not. Sometimes it says i only used it for a couple hours when i had it on for 6+ hours. And the biggest thing is i have a hard time breathing out, its almost like a suffacating feeling where before these issues i was alway able to exhale without any problems. Any ideas on what is going on with this thing?

Where did you get it? If it was from a DME or online seller, have you contacted them?

Clogged vent holes in the mask would make it hard to exhale. Check that.
If you have not tried unplugging for a minute, try that.
Your hours may be off if the clock is set wrong, but it evens out later.
Good luck with Apria, don't let them swap you down to a lesser model, like the "cpap".
