i am new to my cpap amchine. i have adjusted great compared to some of what i have read here from others. My first intial experience was with an autopap machine for 2 weeks.( just a trial by the dr. to see if i could adjust) by the end of the second week i felt like a new woman. i was set up with a cpap of my own at the pressure of 11 and then bumpmed up to 13. this is my question. i still am not feeling like i did after my second week of autopap. would there really be any difference in how these 2 machines would affect you???? i have now been on my cpap therapy for 6 wks. i do feel better, but not like i did that second week. what do "ya'll " think??? (southern bell here!
Thanks!

The auto was getting you to the right pressure...sounds like you are not getting there on cpap. Ask for an auto back. Tell them you arfe not doing as well without it.

All these new people...welcome to the list. Please feel free to ak questions and just talk and share your experiences.
