Low oxygen on Bipap reason for tiredness?

what do you consider "great"?

My Sleep Doc is a pulmonary specialist. I've been going to him for many years. I first went to him about 15yrs ago. They found I had mild apnea. Mostly hypopneas. I tried cpap them but gave up for this reason. Now 15 years later, It got worse with age a lot worst. So that's why I am on bipap.

your doctor needs to medically do what he can. you also need a sleep study to be titrated properly, your current treatment isn't working

My doctor is the fist board certified Sleep Doctor in Fort Worth area. I know you don't sleep well at sleep labs, i have had many and I do have more apnea on my back. This he told me. I am not looking forward to another sleep study. I would like to do a home study but with the low oxygen they said insurance says it has to be in lab.

Palerider my Ahi is 0.6- 2.5. I think that's pretty good. I've seen here that under 5 is good. My highest is 3

how do I get a month report on sleepy head?

===============

good but meaningless except to medicrap bureaucrats and DMEs
its a quick and dirty rough guide to how treatment is going for an average person

clearly your case is not average if you have a low AHI and still have headaches and dont feel good

how do you feel
if you have headaches and low o2 levels then AHI is not something you should care about

Hey...end-of-alphabet boy...do you answer for Palerider now. Quit giving out bad information.

It's going to be sorted at the end of the month. Relax there isn't much you can do, except raise the PS closer to the max PS that they set on your auto, You won't have any o2 feedback to see if it's working and you may not feel comfortable adjust your pressure.. all in all it may be better to wait it out

stop being a libtard troll

my advice is solid and you can take it to the bank

This is your answer to anyone that questions your ability to answer with valid information...It's getting old.
I wouldn't take most of your answers to a piggy bank.

too bad you are too uneducated to realise what the truth is

you have never shown fact 1 that proves me wrong

all you have are your unsupported claims backed only by your arrogant ego

you have been proven wrong on numerous occasions. (Have you ever been right about anything?)

I think Guest is completely right. There is no proof of you ever being right ...
