Bipap questions

Post by johnydramachase » Mon Jul 13, 2026 4:24 am

A couple of years ago I experimented with a BMC G3 B25VT BiPAP. It's basically the Luna G3 BPAP. I had an issue where It would switch to EPAP prematurely, not follow my breathing at all. Unlike say CPAP with EPR at 3. So I couldn't sleep with it and sold it. But now I need to to try again. I'm planning to get the AirCurve 10 VAuto BiLevel Machine. I would like to know if someone can somehow reassure me that this won't be the same case again? Maybe someone who tried both, or just someone who treated UARS successfully with the ResMed.

The B25VT only had S mode for the record, no auto S.

Most likely, you sensed this while awake. Once you fell asleep, the machine probably worked well.
