RE: PS [Pressure Support]
Sleeprider thanks! Shin - the doc wants me to call him every day. He seems to want Sleepyhead problems - H, CA, OA, LL etc. I was supposed to ask his nurse for a copy of the sleep study, but I'll try to ask him.

Nothing I say on the forum should be taken as medical advice.

Here is last night. I changed pressure to CPAP 8 and went to sleep at 10 instead of 9. I am tired but I think I slept well.

My guess is that it is beginning to dawn on your doctor this isn't what he hoped for.

RE: PS [Pressure Support]
I hope you're right but he doesn't seem to care about machine stuff. I can't get through to him at the moment (telephone circuit problem) but I have to emphasize that the numbers really mean something. He's concerned about the "quality" of my sleep and will be impressed by the fact that I didn't wake up last night at 12 - 1. I have to emphasize that I am tired today and it is probably caused by all the H's and CA's. Going to sleep later was probably a very good thing. Oh well...

Got through to doc. He wants me to leave everything as is and go to sleep at 10 for a few nights. He seems more concerned with leaks and likes the fact that they are down.

Here is last night. As you can see, it's worse and I feel rotten. I will tell doc and see if he says anything. I know that I'm supposed to listen to him but I can't take too much more of this.

RE: PS [Pressure Support]
Ask your doctor if he has experience in treating complex apnea, or if he really is convinced this is just obstructive sleep apnea. I'm all for patience and trying to get the best results with the most conservative treatment, but I don't see this helping a lot.

RE: PS [Pressure Support]
I am getting very mad at your doctor. Noone should have to put up with this. You continually feel rotten. I can't even stand 1 day with these kinds of numbers, but I know what it feels like to feel good. You haven't even had an opportunity to feel good. What is his number. I'm ready to blast him.

RE: PS [Pressure Support]
Well I got through to the doc. Apparently I had very little ASV in sleep study but he will try to get machine for me anyway. For now I should set current machine to mode S and 10/8. They are sending me sleep study. I thought I didn't sleep but they said I did.
