I want to thank bonjour for helping me achieve an amazing AHI score!
Before discovering this forum, I was really struggling with my apnea and BiPAP machine!
However a strange thing happened this morning:
I woke up feeling really tired and even after doing my morning exercise and drinking coffe, I feel a little dizzy, confused and forgetful.
I don't understand how this could be! My AHI for the night was 2.8 (screenshots attached below), I got a lot sleep overnight and my central apnea was even zero!
I wil say that I woke up a few times during the night to the sound of my own snorin, and I'm feeling a little sick (sore throat, that's all).

What could be going on?
Maybe your going down with something, the numbers look good one night does not make a trend.
Perhaps it's just my very limited experience with PAP users of all kinds, including all kinds of masks and delivery mechanisms, but...….snoring? If I snore, I think it means something fairly significant is 'wrong'...or maybe just 'different'. I never get indications of snoring, whereas I was a terrible snorer and alarmed guests when they heard it prior to my diagnosis. To me, a sample of but one, snoring should be strictly controlled and minimized when getting the proper PAP treatment. Perhaps I am mistaken.
