Re: How is my wife doing based upon these two screenshots from OSCAR

Thank you, Pugsy, for the complete answers and information. You are correct. She did not notice any difference in either mode. She seems a happy camper using her CPAP although there are plenty of leaks I am sure. She sleeps through the night most nights and has had no trouble adjusting to the use of...

Re: How is my wife doing based upon these two screenshots from OSCAR

Does anyone want to jump in with my two questions from a while ago that did not receive a response?
Regular filter vs. hypoallergenic filter?
The two screenshots. One uses the For Her Mode and the other uses the regular mode.
Thanks for any opinions.

Re: How is my wife doing based upon these two screenshots from OSCAR

Here are the two screenshots. Thank you, Pugsy, for the tip on deleting old screenshots.
The first is APAP and the second is the For Her mode which she normally has been on for the past year.

Re: How is my wife doing based upon these two screenshots from OSCAR

Hello CPAPers! Just wanted to have you take a look at my wife's two nights. One was on April 1 using her normal For Her mode and the other on April 2 using the APAP mode. She normally sleeps through all kinds of leaks and "noises" whereas I can hear them. She has been using the For Her mode since sh...

Re: How is my wife doing based upon these two screenshots from OSCAR

Opinions please on using a regular filter vs. a hypoallergenic filter. Yes, I did check older posts, however, wanted some up-to-date information. My wife has been having a clogged nose lately and I thought maybe to try the hypo filters for her Resmed 10. Also, she has the Philips Dreamwear nasal cus...

Sleep Apnea and BPH

My urologist said for me to get a sleep apnea test since I am waking up a lot at night to urinate. I am a senior. :D It could be the prostate (not enlarged) but blocking to some extent. He guessed perhaps a 10% chance for sleep apnea. He can only guess, however, I have read some articles that this m...

Thank you for the quick reply. I think all is good. Just wanted to be sure before I lowered anything.

Re: How is my wife doing based upon these two screenshots from OSCAR

My wife's water chamber is at the maximum water level when she goes to bed. Sometimes, in the morning it will be empty or nearly empty. She usually sleeps for about 10 hours. The humidity is on auto. I did have it on 4 previously. Anything to be concerned about? When it is dry before she gets up doe...

On the OSCAR download page, there are links to the Chromebook download and instructions.

You have enlightened me for sure. I have a Chromebook and a Windows computer and did not think it worked with a Chromebook.

Re: Pugsy was correct, as always

Prednisone was one of the drugs in my chemotherapy regimen. It did what it was supposed to do, but I had to take additional insulin to control the glucose spikes, and I had a "slight" tendency to 'roid rage against non-maskers in enclosed spaces, sometimes making a public scene at Wal Mart. And wel...

Re: How is my wife doing based upon these two screenshots from OSCAR

That was most informative. You certainly know your CPAP! I will honestly let things be and say Que sera, sera. Michele even stopped looking at MyAir as she was getting verklempt if the number was not high enough. Now, it is put on the mask, go to sleep and wake up without stopping breathing and maki...

Re: How is my wife doing based upon these two screenshots from OSCAR

Thanks, Pugsy. I am not worried. I only want to make sure she is getting the CPAP therapy that she needs. I can't read OSCAR as well as you can for sure. Thank you for taking the time to look over the nightly result. I will certainly grin and keep loving her as I have always done. She has been a rea...

Re: How is my wife doing based upon these two screenshots from OSCAR

I know I am a broken record. :lol: My wife, on some nights, has what I consider a "windstorm" of air. I am not sure where it is coming from. Maybe a small opening in her mouth? Maybe when the Dreamwear headgear moves out of place? Sometimes, it wakes her up, however, most of the time it does not. I ...

Thank you for the kind words. I am so glad your husband is NED and hopefully thriving. God bless you. Each day is a victo...
