I think Otto said it in his title.

Otto, can you tell us what you consider the "obvious source of potential problems"?

Also what model is your Resmed? How long have you had it? Have you contacted your DME?

Because the absolute favourite past time on these forums is to spend a lot of time playing 20 questions, with people asking for help.

I'll start; Animal, vegetable or mineral?

Vegetable, as it is clearly brain dead
Or mineral, as it is currently a rock.
Definitely not animal

OP, if you ever come back and look, perhaps you could provide just a bit more information. If you have no idea what that might be, we have an issue as we do hate wasting time guessing.

I win.
But what do I win?
The 2021 edition of our home game, and a bus pass to Fargo.

Maybe the same problem I have at times. When my wife pulls my machine out to put in water at night, she often manages to unplug the cord running to the back of the machine. I have learned to check and make sure the little LED on top of the machine is lit before trying to turn it on.

Ok, I'm jealous...my spouse has NEVER filled my water tank in my machine!

I guess I need to train her better! :lol: :lol:

It's strange, but we have identical set ups. We both use Air Curve 10 VAUTO and the F20 mask. Who ever goes to bed first fills the machines. We were diagnosed three years apart, but we had almost identical severity. I had AHI of 48 and hers was 49. I guess it's true that when two people live together for a long time they start resembling each other. :lol: :lol:
