RE: Sleeping Apnea
Welcome, your AHI is not that great and may be able to be reduced. If you want the most effective help here you will need to post data. If you have your sleep study that would help, and also the daily charts from [url=https://OSCAR Official Download Page ----> CLICK HERE ./]SleepyHead[/url],  this is the software that people on the forum are used to working with, it provides a wealth of information about your treatment. There is a guide to using it here. Beginner's Guide to SleepyHead. Reports from other software would be ok if that is what you are using already. There are a couple of guides on how to post and organize your charts here. Posting an Image in 5 Easy Steps       Organize your SleepyHead Charts. If you need more help with any aspect of posting data don't hesitate to ask.

Best of luck,

Dave

RE: Sleeping Apnea
You may be mouth breathing with the nasal mask, which can give a dry mouth. read about masks in the link below.
you will be able to adjust your elite with the aid of sleepyhead, please download it and post some charts.

For auto-cpap, from machine data or software. You can set the min pressure 1 or 2cm below 95%. Or clinicians commonly use the maximum or 95% pressure for fixed pressure CPAP, this can also be used for min pressure.
