Re: After losing 150 pounds?

That's sounds fair enough Pugsy, zonker, and anyone else still following. So is the 4cm to 20cm setting okay?

Re: After losing 150 pounds?

Will do.

But overall do the stats indicate that I am still suffering from severe OSA?

Re: After losing 150 pounds?

Is there some way to know if you've been awakened by a leak? I can sleep up to 7 continual hours with the CPAP, though it's usually less than that (in which case I usually go back to bed / take a nap later on).

Thanks.

Re: After losing 150 pounds?

Here is an update. Unfortunately, there seems to be no change (to my eyes, at least). Let's see if I can get these images in line this time. This is from the night before last. Numbers continue to jump around, so I wouldn't say this is typical, since there is no typical. I couldn't get it all in the...

Re: After losing 150 pounds?

Okay, but you've peaked my curiosity. What is this thing that I must avoid?

Are you sure you have the right machine?. I see no mention of it in the manual.

Re: After losing 150 pounds?

I'm now 2 nights on APAP. Numbers still seem to be jumping around. I'll post some in a couple of days. Thanks for staying with me.

Opti Start is off. What is EZStart? I don't see it on the setup menu.

Re: After losing 150 pounds?

I set the ramp time to 0, so I guess that means the ramp feature is inactive.

Yes, I have the manual. So I think I'm okay. Thanks. (Auto-start is enabled.)

Re: After losing 150 pounds?

Oh, so it's the little triangular-shaped button I was just holding down for provider settings. As long as I don't press it when I start using the machine, I am NOT ramping. Correct?

These are the items on the menu: Back Mode Auto max Auto min Opti-Start Flex type A-Flex SYSTEM ONE humidification Humidifier Tubing type loc...

Re: After losing 150 pounds?

Thanks, Pugsy and Chicago. Okay, how do I go to apap mode? And how do I increase the pressure? So I take it I need to focus on major leaks and FL. Another SleepyHead capture from last night is below. The Pugsy's Pointers post is huge. But the only problem I seem to have encounted with images is they...
