Hello, I am currently on a Resmed BiPap Vauto. I had surgery 2 weeks ago and was advised to lower both IPap and Epap as the stomach affected my stomach and they didn't want me swallowing too much air to expand it.<br/> Is there anything I can do to address this with a BiPaP? I have tried "Trigger Ve...

I am trying to ask here to get help. It is the weekend and they are closed I am not able to get ahold of them. I am desperate for sleep as I have not slept in days.

Hello everyone! First wanted to say thank you in advance for any help. 5 days ago I had Hiatal hernia and toupet fundlipocation surgery. Lots of work was done on my diaphragm and anatomy was changed in my body. I was able to sleep the first few nights with my Bipap in the hospital but was heavily se...

I think I figured it out! Results from last night, changed trigger set to very high to help with CA's. Still, have lots of o2 fluctuation it seems, any suggestions on how to stabilize this? Woke up several times turning the machine off then putting it back on when ready to go back to sleep https://i...

As you may already know, IGA nephropathy can cause tiredness as a symptom. Are you seeing a kidney specialist? Are you receiving any forms of treatment for the disease?

Yes definitely does cause fatigue

I am seeing a specialist. No treatment as of now. Just being monitored

Would messing with the trigger / cycle have any effect on this or is there anything different I could try that you can think of? I don't know. I don't ever advised someone go screwing around with Ti min though. Do you take any medications of any kind? If so, what? Any other physical or mental healt...

Ever since starting therapy I still have never felt rested in the morning and that's honestly my second biggest issue behind the aerophagia So....you woke up feeling rested BEFORE you ever started cpap therapy??? The bulk of your flagged centrals (CAs) are arousal/awake breathing related. To reduce...

I will lower the PS to 2 tonight and try that and report back, will also upload the report to SleepHQ as well You might want to be using SleepHQ sooner than later and go check out those flagged events for evidence of awake/arousal breathing flagged events before you start worrying about making chan...

Sleep and O2 report from last night. Oxygen is much better which is great And the machine did not go on strike! Some desats around 3am and 7am. When you post your Oscar you're zooming in... harder to correlate the O2 with the Oscar. You had a nap early in the day... you can turn that session off us...

Still waking up feeling tired and with a headache. Anything I can tweak to better optimize this?

Your desat was at 1am... when you didn't have the mask on? Makes sense. Maybe I don't understand. The machine was off between 11:50pm and 02:00am... I always yank the mask off when the machine turns off. I apologize if I'm not explaining this correctly. The report is with the mask on and cpap runni...

So last night's O2 report is when you took the mask off and slept without cpap?

No, the O2 report is with cpap

A very acceptable report......both from symptom relief and an unremarkable AHI or detailed report. Dig out that pulse ox and see what it says. I doubt seriously if your O2 levels were/are low at these settings at least from the OSA side of things. Simply not enough events to cause desats. Now you c...

Thank you for your response! It has been several months now with no changes and it actually seemed to have gotten worse. How long did it take to adjust for you. ResMed AirCurve BiPAP 10 VAuto - this is the machine I am on. This may have been incorrect in what I stated literally weeks. I would chang...
