I'm expecting to receive my Bpap machine on Friday and will update my profile then. I've had extreme fatigue the past year and wasn't advised to take sleep study until I changed primary doctors four months ago. Primary doctor for 13 years never referred me for sleep study even though I am male,overweight,and snore and complained of extreme fatigue. First study showed AHI of 54.8. Second study showed I needed bpap set at 13/8. I guess I'll learn more after receiving machine and instructions. Happy to find this site. I think I'll have many Questions .....

Welcome to the forum.
Save this link. When you get your machine you will want to get the clinical/provider manual for your machine.
It contains information not included in the typical user manual.
https://www.apneaboard.com/adjust-cpap- ... tup-manual
Most likely it will be either Respironics or ResMed brand and you can use available software to monitor how your therapy is going.
See here for more information about the available software.
https://sleep.tnet.com/equipment
There is some limited data available on the machine's LCD screens or with the little apps that are being pushed now but the real detailed data comes from using the software. If you run into trouble you are going to want more details in order to maybe be able to sort it all out.
