I learn something from everyone who comments... I am so grateful for the kindness of your time and guidance.
Last night my Fitbit has sleep starting at 0510 and when not including the Oscar data previous to 0510 the remaining 5 hrs 10 minutes sleep (graphs attached) was an AHI of 0.0
Holy cow!!
The leak rate for the night was 12.00 but that all occurred during the first hour after which the large leak rate was 0.00
The couple nights prior were lousy sleep but it appears as I'm adjusting to the ASV I'm having great success!
A question:
There have been changes in resting BPM and REM sleep since starting on ASV and I'm wondering if they'll return to or near my normal with continued use?
I'm aware of the inherent inaccuracies of sport watches but have found my Fitbit Charge 3 to be consistent and the sleep recording correlates quite well with how I feel physically and mentally next day.
Sleeping on my back resting BPM tended to be 70-74 and recently was a pretty consistent 70 BPM.
With ASV resting heart rate for the 5 nights has risen to
79/80/80/78/76.
Also deep sleep has increased to 18-22% from the previous 30 day average of 15%... presumably a good thing (the benchmark for women my age is 8-16%.)
This increase seems to primarily be correlated with a reduction in light sleep % but on 2 nights the REM phase was 0% and 4% (previous 30 day average was 19%.) Undoubtedly not healthy if this continues.
Does anyone know whether I can anticipate these "side effects" with ASV will resolve with time?
