I have the results of the sleep study now. I was being tested for auto0ASV (Adaptive Servo-Ventilation). This is a variant of BPAP/CPAP ithat measures breathing pressure and customizes delivered pressure to stabilize breathing. Sounds appropriate for me and indeed they founf it helpful. An order for an auto-ASV machine has been placed and now I wait to hear from the delivering company.
ReplyDeleteI hope the machine proves helpful.
DeleteYoungest wears a CPAP mask and finds it helps a lot. I'll be interested to hear how you find wearing a mask...is it actually more comfortable than one might expect? I imagine the improvement in sleep quality is a great reason to befriend it.
DeleteDepends on both the mask and the person. The one I wore the first time had a side strap that was uncomfortable for someone sleeping on their side. The one this time wasn't immediately easy to ignore but seemed more natural after a while. I'll take a look at what else might be available.
DeleteYes, if it improves my sleep as much as promised it will be worth it.
👍
DeleteThe study also confirmedd that I need a full-face mask. Presumably due to my sinus problems I sometimes breath through my mouth while sleeping although not while awake.
ReplyDeleteWe had our first snow of the winter today - about six inches, I would guess.
ReplyDeleteYup. Somebody was holding the map upsidedown again, because way up here we only got 4" of snow.
DeleteDang, in the TN special election the R won. At least only by about 5 points instead of 22 like last time. But, still.
ReplyDeleteA 17 point improvement is not to be sneezed at. Could have flipped a less staunchly R district.
DeleteRachel Maddow is on Colbert tonight and she's telling it like it is. Find this and watch it!!
