Same problem. Its not allergies, or anything else they can find. One ENT (of several I saw) said turbinates can swell just because you are getting older. I'm only 37! It only happens at night, and doctors have told me "that doesn't happen." One night was so bad I used a flashlight to see up my nose ...

Hi, I'm youngish, 37, and know 2 other guys my age with sleep apnea. They are good with their treatment but I'm still struggling alot. I'm 2 years into this and still have problems with my nasal pillow mask coming off among other things. I've had a few doctors prescribe anti-histamines or sleep aids...

Thanks for your post! I've been suffering similarly for the last two years. I feel like your post helps get me on the right track to deal with my apnea and nightly nasal congestion!

I suspect something similar with gluten is happening with me as well!

Yes, I've tried the suggestions and tinkered more. At my third sleep study last month they said they used the latest settings I had my machine at and they told me they had zero apneas during the study (although my sleepyhead data never shows me below 5). I'm curious as to whether that was a one time...

Hi, I'm wondering if there is anyone out there who may have had a similar experience or words of wisdom for me. I've been using CPAP for about a year, for 3 months on BiPAP (it didn't seem to relieve any of my symptoms), then I used just an oral appliance (it also did not relieve my symptoms), then ...

Got it! Thanks. Strangely if the same file is on my desktop it won't work, but if I point it to the backup file buried in the CPAP data it does. Weird, but it worked. Thank you!

Hi, random question. My usb card reader crapped out on me and I can get SD card data on my computer, but not import it through the SD card reader where sleepyhead reads it and uploads it. Is there a way to import data from something other than an SD card? When I point it to the C: nothing happens. I...

I see why you are asking about the ramp. I have a lot of H's near the start, and that can probably boost my average for the night some. I don't actually know when I fell asleep. I removed my clock as part of better sleep hygiene and can't actually tell when the ramp feature ends (this is actually th...

So I reduced the PS slightly and raised the EPAP to 6. I remember waking up 4 or 5 times as opposed to one or two most nights and I had a lot of pressure in my ears whenever I was awake (like when you are on an airplane and have to swallow to make it go away). I wonder if that is a first day adjustm...

Okay, I adjusted the settings again. I'm going to try reducing the ps slightly and increasing epep to 6. Maybe that will be enough to reduce the apneas and then the CA's as well. I asked my doctor a couple of weeks ago what clear airways were since I had just pulled data for myself from sleepyhead a...

The PS max of 8 is especially not doing you any favors (you did hit 6 of that and in fact may be a factor in some of the CAs/Centrals popping up. Okay, I found the way to access provider settings on another post and set it to 4, so at least that is taken care of. Let's see if I have less CA's tonig...

How did it come to be that these settings were chosen for you? How did you end up with this machine? It's nice machine but unusual to have this machine with your pressure settings. Are you sleeping soundly for the most part when you are asleep or do you have times with the mask and machine on that ...

Hi, I think I got it right. Thanks for replying. This is from the other night where my AHI was well over ten near the middle of the night and then over 17 before I woke up.
