RE: Hypopnea? - fejsbukpejdz - 07-05-2020 Hello man, sorry for creating a misunderstanding. please don't get me wrong... I have no intentions to make you feel bad, I just want to tell you I was in the same place , had even worse numbers.... Like AHI of 3 and 4. I would still advise you, if you were able to have that first machine, a computer and a smartphone to write this comment and idk, then for sure if you try you can get a better machine. Maybe not right now but down the road 1 year or 2 yearsk, that is where you should be going man. I myself suffered a lot and Dreamstation just didn't have what it takes to solve my problem. I got Vauto and I sleep like a baby and breathing feels so natural. Dreamstation was good for me because it fixed my sleep at least to a decent degree until I upgraded. That's all I'm saying. If you achieve a good result with Dreamstation don't stop there. Attack those flow limitaitons as soon as you can have a better machine. Sleep is so imoprtant, it's like food. We can go without food for more than a month but can we go without sleep for more than a month? Don't buy a new phone, computer, don't buy expensive food, skip that beer for a year or two, really save all you have and invest in your sleep. 2000 euros for good sleep is nothing in my opinion. If I had no cash, I'd go out on the street and beg for 2000 euros until I get that machine. Now that I can sleep well, life changed so much and it is beautiful. I just want to motivate you. Your number AHI 1 is not worse from what I had and I felt much better when my AHI approached 1, so probably it is not that bad, only you can tell, but I want to motivate you, invest in your sleep, work on it, don't give up. Even if it's a long road ahead. Don't be satisfied until you get the best. I am sorry if I caused misunderstanding. Really,,, sorry RE: Hypopnea? - Dugy40 - 07-05-2020 (07-05-2020, 11:27 AM)fejsbukpejdz Wrote: Hello man, Laptop. Given to me. Phone given to me. On my sons phone plan.

Hi Dugy40, This is a sample graph, so just look at the bottom left for the Event Flag Selector. See the arrow pointing to the drop down box. Click on that, and select/unselect what you want to show. We normally turn VS2 off as they aren't real snores, and leave the VS on.

But still showing in daily.[attachment=24265] RE: Hypopnea? - Crimson Nape - 07-05-2020 The reporting on the left is what your machine is reporting and can not be edited. The VS2 is turned off in your Events graph on the right.

RE: Hypopnea? - Crimson Nape - 07-05-2020 The phrase, "can not be edited", means you can't turn it off. Sorry for the confusion.

I’ve been racking my brain out trying to turn it off. Haha. RE: Hypopnea? - Dugy40 - 07-05-2020 (07-05-2020, 11:09 AM)bonjour Wrote: Your numbers are really good. They do not need adjusting unless they are bothering you. You made my day. You make me feel like cpap is worth hanging with. I almost felt like throwing in the towel earlier. I hope I get my ResMed this week and that it’s a good one. Thank you a lot for writing me. Love hearing from you. I love positivity. Talk to you later. Doug. RE: Hypopnea? - Dugy40 - 07-06-2020 i was told the other day to just set my machine on 9. does everyone still think i should just set to 9? i need to learn to read the leak rate. i woke up a couple times breathing though my mouth. i am trying to train myself to not breathe through my mouth. does leak rate look bad? does it look like my mask is leaking because my mask is so comfortable. i have a new one one on the way. its a nose mask to. ive read its best to breathe through your nose. so i am trying not to have to go full face. thoughts?
