Re: New Member, Some History, Questions, & Severe Oversleeping

CPAP at 7cm H20 using a ResMed Swift FX/Medium mask, with cool humidification, effectively treated the patient's respiratory disturbances. Okay, a few qu...

Re: New Member, Some History, Questions, & Severe Oversleeping

Just got off the phone with them for the O2 rental and was advised it would be cheaper to buy one? Was told I could get one for 40.00 but was blessed with selling some things this week so will order the CMS-50D Plus as was advised. Sounds and looks like a reasonable way to go. My initial Sleep Stud...

Re: New Member, Some History, Questions, & Severe Oversleeping

Tim: It seems that you have several issues. I was having several issues also... so here are my two cents: - segregate your issues. Work as many as you can, but separate them. - if finances are an issue, maybe your doctor can prescribe a "rental" O2 meter. It appears that you want to see if your O2 ...

Re: New Member, Some History, Questions, & Severe Oversleeping

DME....Durable Medical Equipment and what we call the place of business who supplied your mask and machine or supplies cpap equipment. The EPR part of the S9 Escape only refers to the Exhale Pressure Relief. I guess there are some of them that don't have EPR. You still have a brick (our not so nice...

Re: New Member, Some History, Questions, & Severe Oversleeping

Thank you for replying so quickly! No, there has never been a follow up or anyone request to see the SD Card. My Doctor asks me if I am using it and I do faithfully every night and when I know I'm going back to sleep during the day. I do see I made a profile mistake in the choice of machines I list...

Re: New Member, Some History, Questions, & Severe Oversleeping

I am wondering if it is possible that my CPAP machine is lessening my oxygen intake through the filtration system? I echo the previous responses. You would really benefit from: a) a machine with full efficacy data to show if you the machine is helping you avoid apnea events, and b) a recording puls...

Re: New Member, Some History, Questions, & Severe Oversleeping

Welcome to the forum. So sorry you are having so much trouble and no relief. Your profile shows the ResMed S9 Escape machine....if that is indeed what you have then all the talk about software is lost to you because the Escape doesn't gather any data on that SD card beyond how many hours you are us...
