Do I need to adjust
hi guys,
i have been on CPAP for over 7 years and treatment was going well. Three weeks ago my CPAP machine was changed to a Dreamstation Auto and since i have been getting increasingly tired. Would appreciate some input into my settings to see if i can improve any.
i recently changed the start pressure from 8 to 10.
I have attached my OSCAR export and await your feedback.
Welcome to AB. Thanks for the data but that data is not specific enough. See the Organize link in my signature and send us your daily details. It would also help is you could send us a good day from your CPAP.

What machine did you change from and could you please upload your SD card data? I'd prefer to look at your data directly in OSCAR. Just copy paste everything from the SD card into a folder, compress that folder into a .zip file and share that .zip file.
Do you have any specific complaints apart from being "increasingly tired"? Do you take off the mask in your sleep? Do you find it difficult to exhale against the pressure when using the CPAP machine?
