I can't see my graphs in Sleepyhead

My graphs for some reason are not showing. It says "Plots Disabled". I tried searching for answers but cannot find a solution to my problem. What can I do? I had to reformat my PC which means I had to delete all my old files, but would that do anything here?

Re: Dry mouth help

Using a FFM significantly reduced my dry mouth. It was horrible waking up at night feeling like I was about to choke

Re: How long does a face mask typically last?

My mask has an oral cushion and nose pillows separate from each other. I wash them about every three days, using unscented baby wipes in between. I can go six months on the nose pillows before replacing, maybe more, but usually need to replace the oral cushion about every three months. (Making sure...

Re: How long do machines typically last?

does the script have to have the model of the machine, or can it just state "ASV machine" on it? There's usually just one model in a brand that has ASV somewhere on it but I think to be safe I would ask for a specific brand and complete official model name. That way there's no chance of a mix up. Y...

Re: How long do machines typically last?

@Wearyone

You do raise a point on the type of machine. Since ASV does much more things than a regular APAP or CPAP, many more things within the machine can likely make the machine break faster.

Eh I guess I should look into getting another machine.

Re: How long do machines typically last?

Yeah I am probably at 15,000 hours (estimate) I am getting a bit worried. I guess when I have an appointment with my doctor later this month, I will ask for a script. I forgot, does the script have to have the model of the machine, or can it just state "ASV machine" on it?

How long do machines typically last?

I have had my ASV machine for a few years now and am thinking about buying an emergency one. How do they usually "break"?
