Tootired,

Well, you have my sympahy and empathy, as I can relate. My titration results have also been all over the map, and back and forth between recommending Cpap and Bi pap.

None of em have helped me yet -- am giving it another whirl now, with Cpap at 10, per my latest titration. I've also had a hard time finding a mask I can sleep through the night with.

Now I'm using the Breeze, as it seems to be the only one i can actually fall asleep with, but even then, I usually only make it five or six hours with it on before I wake up from discomffort and cant fall back to sleep until I take it off

Someone else who replied to you suggested another sleep disorder. I have frequently wondered about the UARS disorder.....But wouldnt the sleep study show if we had that, or some other disorder, in addition to the apnea?

I've had two sleep studies and five titrations, and no one ever said anything to me about having another disorder

is there a separate study they do, I wonder, for UARS?
