I am still in my initial 90 day trial and had dreamstation for about 40 days and now trying resmed since past 10 days. I like the resmed look better but found dreamstation bluetooth functionality and reporting easier to understand. Resmed reports differently and I am still confused. Myair reporting makes no sense to me in comparison to dreammapper and after transferring it to OSCAR I am even more confused. Looking for a easy to understand comparison between both machine's reports

Some talking about not given a choice of machine. When I got my first one the doctor prescribed a specific brand—one hardly anyone else was using. I did some checking and found I could get a different brand if I did it within 30 days. So I switched to an S9.
When it was time for another machine I decided to try the Dreamstation. Couldn’t get used to it and after two weeks got the A10. I don’t know it the ability to change machines within 30 days is good in all Medicare programs or just some of them. The second time the doctor (a different one) didn’t prescribe a specific machine. Left it up to me.

Ideally, we get what we pay for--but sometimes we have to stick up for ourselves to get it.
