Re: Victim of centrals only?
You're blaming a machine for physical realities... so don't look to blame it when things don't go well and you don't use it, be glad you do have it all. I think you misunderstood, I wasn't blaming the machine and I wasn't thinking about not using it, this was just a thought for when for example I u...

Re: Victim of centrals only?
Then a couple of years into therapy I had to go without my cpap one night because I traveled to Vegas and totally forgot the long hose and nothing could be done about it until the next morning. I got a taste of what untreated sleep apnea could make me feel like....it wasn't pretty. That makes me wo...

Re: Victim of centrals only?
From what I hear it can take some people a bit of time to get used to the ASV kind of machine's way of doing things. I didn't when I tried one but then I had been on cpap/apap/bilevel for several years before I ever tried one and I adjusted easily to things by that time. Now my first 3 to 4 months ...

Re: Victim of centrals only?
So here I am again, had my second therapy night in the sleep clinic last week and got my brand new ResMed AirCurve 10 CS-A PaceWave (seems to be identical to the AirCurve 10 ASV) with ClimateLine hose and AirFit P10 mask yesterday (brand new as in zero hours use, but it's only a rental machine for w...

Re: [SALE] ResMed AirCurve 10 VAuto + Accessories
Bump! AirCurve10VAuto1.png ClimateLineAir.png AirFitP10.png As said, I am willing to ship internationally and this really is a good offer. Chances are very slim that I will find a buyer locally, because nobody here in Austria would ever buy such a machine himself, as a rental machine is covered by h...

Re: CBD (from cannabis) oil and deep sleep
My wife got me a 1500mg/30ml bottle and I'm currently using 8 drop sublingual in the evening in addition to a cup of Reishi medical mushroom tea. It makes me a little sleepy, but it does not seem to have any benefits for a better sleep. I'm not really convinced, I have no interest in playing with th...

Re: First I've heard of it: Resmed N30i
Nice find! I was wondering why ResMed didn't go that way before. Hopefully it will be available on a broader bases soon. And keep the reviews coming please!

[SOLD] ResMed AirCurve 10 VAuto + Accessories
I have recently imported a slightly used ResMed AirCurve 10 VAuto with built-in humidifier, ClimateLineAir heated tube and AirFit P10 nasal pillow mask from the USA to Austria/Europe (thanks to @Pugsy), for which I have no use as I just found out that I'm suffering Complex Sleep Apnea for which I ne...

Re: Victim of centrals only?
It took about six month's for my wife's CA count to get to an acceptable level. They started her off at a lower pressure that cut her AHI in half. Her initial study said her AHI was 49, and when she first started treatment, her treated AHI was around 25. They would gradually add more pressure every...

Re: Victim of centrals only?
Damned, so indeed Complex Sleep Apnea it is. :( Positional sleep restrictions do not work for me, because OSA and hyopnea occur in all sleep positions with not being able to sleep on my back at all. No point in hoping that this will get better on its own by suffering for an uncertain period of time ...

Re: Victim of centrals only?
Well, it took a few nights for that second test with PS off due to a slight nasal infection, but here it is from last night: screenshot-20181103-173709.png I did not really get much sleep, with PS off breathing felt quite unnatural, and I had to increase Min EPAP from 4 to 8 in two steps. Trying to ...

Re: Victim of centrals only?
Short on time so have to be quick. Been wondering what was going on with you. Yes, I'm sorry, I wanted to give feedback, but I received your parcel right before a business trip, took the machine with me, didn't succeed, got sidetracked by work and other stuff, so I thought I'd just wait for the fin...

Victim of centrals only?
It's been a while. I passed by here in July after a home screening revealed that I have "mild" OSAS. At that point I had to wait three more month for the full diagnoses in the sleep clinic, which just took place a few days ago. Since I didn't want to wait that long, @Pugsy organized a barely used Ai...

Re: Is there any cheaper oximetry solution for ResMed machines?
There's more to SDB and sleep apnea than just oxygen levels and the pulse ox can only show oxygen levels. Can't show some of the other stuff that can cause us problems when it comes to SDB or sleep apnea. That's why it makes most sense to combine the two for analyzing xPAP + SpO2 data in SleepyHead...
