My machine is an Everest Aeromed. I have the electric/battery operated one so that I can camp with it. I can get 3 nights out of it, but mine isn't set really high, I think it's about 7. And I didn't have classic apnea either, just low blood oxygen. I kind of want DH to go get checked as he snores, but haven't gotten around to making an appt for him, suppose I should, but he doesn't do the stop breathing thing so not sure if he's got true apnea.
I don't really stop breathing either, but I am classified as Critical Sleep Apnea because my oxygen levels go dangerously low. If there is a chance he has Sleep Apnea I would have him tested.
