RE: My doctor yelled at me for changing the settings
I was at an appointment with my sleep doc and he mentioned, I see you made a change to the settings. It appears to work for you, so I don't have an problems with it.

My sleep doc and I have a great relationship.

RE: My doctor yelled at me for changing the settings
you said she admitted, that you did it right. the settings are ok now ?
she might still be a good doctor.

maybe you can talk with her about your settings being optimized
one way or the other, but yes she should listen to you instead of being mean.

you might leave her her ego in some way. then she probably softens up.

it sure can be difficult and i don't know how bad it really is.
maybe you can still keep the option of going back to her, if possible.


with the jaw retainer, i had a similar situation.
then it turned out, that she was very good in adapting the thing.
