Newbe Help

Post by Gorf » Tue Sep 05, 2006 12:43 am

Hello every one!!

I just got a Bi-pap machine to help with chronic morning Migraines. I have to wait 2 more weeks before I go and get setup with my final pressure numbers.

Last week the Bi-pap I got at first stopped working. I was sleeping great with it for 2 weeks without any migraines. So the gave me a new one. This one is not working. The pressure never ramps up? It’s like it stays at the same pressure all the time. Every time I call the hospital they want me to come back in and they will adjust it. Well they are over 40 min away and I work the night shift, so its very hard for me to get there. I was able to get into the setup mode, but I'm not sure what to look for or what I should do to resolve the issue.

I was told that my starting "test" pressure should be 7, but that’s all I know.

Any help would be great. I just want to sleep again without the migraines. I was very close to just giving up, and then I got this thing. I just want it to work.

Thanks for the help
