NEED HELP ASAP DOWNLOADING SD CARD ! - PhoenixRising - 11-01-2019

Can someone please Upload my Data on your Software and Email me back my report ? I already Downloaded SleepyHead and it says my machine (Respironics DreamStation) is NOT supported.

 Long story short....

 I need to get a CDL physical to renew my CDL ASAP. My new employer will NOT accept my current Medical Card and is requiring me to get a new CDL physical.

 The problem is the Clinic does NOT have the capability to read my SD Card to get a report.

 I am a Veteran and get my care through the VA. If you know anything about the VA (I also am a 35 Year Government Employee..... 20 Military...... 15 with the VA).  .... the VA is a CLUSTER )-**** top to bottom.  The VA is so bad I Retired early to get out of there. No joke.

 That said, I have been trying in vain to reach someone....anyone at my local VA's Sleep Clinic.to get my damn SD Card read. I have been totally unsuccessful this whole past week.  ........ Yea, we LOVE out Vets ! :ROLLEYES:

 Anyways, could someone please upload my data and Email me back my report ? My job depends on this !

 Thank you very much.

Your profile indicates you are using a Philips Respironics System One, but you do not specify the model. CPAP models are the DS220P (SE), DS460P (Pro) and DS560P (Auto). You should be aware the DS220P CPAP SE does not record any efficacy data and will not report any useful information except time of use. Please let us know exactly what machine model you are using, and we can advise further. The System One series has not been manufactured since 2015 and is outdated, and the DS220P is a "brick" for data. If you were dispensed this machine from a DME, you should ask them to take their discontinued junk back.

I know. I haven't been here forever and a day.

I now have a Resprironics DreamStation. Much better machine.

PhoenixRising,

Well wishes from a former CDL A holder. I'm actually glad I missed dealing with that combo of apnea and licensing issues. I kept my class A but declassified myself from the CDL side several years ago when my bad back required getting out of the truck for good.

Best to ya
