Hello all,
I just finished my sleep studies and I am not using the sleep clinic's DME but going to a supplier in town thats in insurance network. My doctor has asked me what machine I want. I am leaning toward Resmed s9 auto for the adjustment capability. Any suggestions or warnings? I haven't been given any info yet on the results except for being told I have moderate to severe apnea. Any info would be appreciated.

Welcome to the board. I've noticed quite a few folks on here have the S9. I'm sure they'll chime in before long.

Hello dbblet, and welcome. Don't have an S9 but love my prSys 1 auto. Lots here like S9 auto, I'm sure you'll hear from them. Sounds like you are on the right track with doc and DME, and have done your homework Kathy
Any landing you walk away from is a good one; if you don't break your airplane it's excellent.

I have S9 with climateline hose. I have been very pleased thus far no complaints. It was my first choice machine.
