Awaken by CPAP-AUTO

Posted by jiveonlive on October 08, 2007 at 21:31:50:

have been using REMstar AUTO for about a few months now...
with minimum pressure of 6...

my understanding is that the machine puts in more pressure when it senses low breathing....

sometimes, i could feel and hear the pressure going up while in half-sleep... which means i was already awaken....
which seems to defeat the whole purpose of using the machine (that is, not to awake me)....

what is wrong with this picture???
