Thanks so much, ChicagoGranny!

Hi. I'm wondering if you all can help me. I have primarily UARS (moderate level with mild actual sleep apnea). I've been using CPAP consistently (averaging 9 hours a night) for many years and still struggle with exhaustion. I've had many sleep studies and they've tweaked my pressure many times. I've...

JZ, yes, I have considered that MVP might contribute to the fatigue and have seen some information on that out there, but I've had a similar experience to you with doctors telling me it shouldn't cause any symptoms, etc. I think I mentioned it in my original post because on some level I am open to t...

Thanks everyone. Sorry - haven't had much time to be on the computer the last couple days. So the EPR was on and that was what was resulting in lower pressures in the results section. I tried turning it off a couple nights ago, but woke up with a really dry mouth and figured I had been leaking throu...

Oooh, I'm so mad! I just called my DME provider and it turns out that instead of changing my APAP to a fixed pressure of 8, they just changed the maximum pressure to 8 and kept it in auto mode, even though my prescription clearly specified a fixed pressure! I wanted it at a fixed pressure because I ...

Thanks for the response, Den. I'm currently using a Resmed S8 APAP at a fixed pressure of 8, with a humidifier and Respironics Comfort Gel nasal mask. I've also used the same machine in auto mode, but worried that it wasn't catching all of my non-apnea/hypopnea respiratory arousals. I've also used p...

Hi everyone. I'm hoping to get some advice because I'm really struggling right now. I am 28 years old and was diagnosed with mild sleep apnea and moderate upper airway resistance (AHI ~11, RAI/RDI ~30) about 6 years ago. Prior to that I had struggled with significant fatigue and sleepiness since I w...

Hi everyone. This is a great forum. So many knowledgeable people! After recently getting good health insurance for the first time in a few years, I'm back to trying to figure out why CPAP hasn't done the trick for me. I've been diagnosed with mild OSA and moderate UARS. I've tried CPAP (and APAP) at...
