No there are definately two reports, one the first study without a CPAP - and I knew those results - bad.

The second was with a CPAP, but to be fair, it was the night that they were trying the CPAP out on me, and trying to find the right pressure etc. So the CPAP wouldn't have been working full tilt on me the whole night.

I am using a regular CPAP on trial for 1 month right now at a pressure of 15. I feel a LOT better most of the time (however today I am very dizzy and disoriented - but it could be my sugar levels - they tend to act up and go low on me) which I think maybe the CPAP is making them go lower..

Anyway I see the 'sleep doctor' the first week of April. I will have to get some clarification about the two reports.

I am thinking I might be better with the Respironics C-Flex, and I may seriously look into this.

thanks!
