I have statistcal information that is the same as what I view in the little window of my CPAP machine, and then I have a whole bunch of graphs ...

Re: Got CPAP machine today

I have to say I am surprised at how much better I am feeling already. I was expecting that in the beginning that I would be able to sleep the whole night with the CPAP, get a good night's sleep, and not wake up gasping for air and my heart pounding as I was able to sleep just find with the cpap mask...

Re: Got CPAP machine today

Just had my very first night of sleep on the CPAP. Obviously I ended up having no problem with the air pressure, as I fell asleep pretty soon after laying down and stayed asleep the whole night. I was getting up at least twice a night every night to go to the bathroom, and not in a "I am awake so I ...

Re: Got CPAP machine today

Only a newb would think that is acceptable. Everyone else wants to see their data each morning to know how they are doing. and you think the screen data is adequate? What part of "I have a memory card in the machine" do you not understand? Once I get the free software downloaded, I can see all the ...

Re: Got CPAP machine today

Sounds like you got a good DME there! We have also set your machine up to ramp up from 6 to your prescribed setting of 13 over a 30 minute period of time once you turn it on." The ramp up from 6 is why you feel like you are suffocating. Most of us turn it off after a few days--it's a comfort measur...

Re: Got CPAP machine today

They gave me an itemized bill today, What was the charge for the modem? Modem data will be e-mailed to me. How often? Only a newb would think that is acceptable. Everyone else wants to see their data each morning to know how they are doing. With the press of a button he can see his data every morni...

Re: Got CPAP machine today

Modem data will be e-mailed to me. They gave me a memory card to also record data once the modem is returned, and to use now too. I saw a few threads with software recommendations. I am going to take a look at them over the weekend and download one. As for cost, my only cost is 20%. Today I had to p...

Got CPAP machine today

As I said in my initial post here, I had a sleep study test done a couple of weeks ago with emergency split night. Before even finding this forum, I had already started researching CPAP machines and what to look for and which ones to stay away from. Today I had my appointment with the DME provider. ...
