RE: New here....Need some help with Oscar data <3
I suspect that the high respiratory rate is an artefact. I'm always suspicious when I see a respiratory rate in the same general ballpark as heart rate. I would suggest zooming in on a couple of minutes where the respiratory rate appears to be ~50, and counting the actual breaths.
I see that your obstructive respiratory events tend to form clusters, which is sometimes a sign of a positional effect. It might be worth video recording yourself when asleep, to see if there's any correlation between your position and/or body movements and your breathing.
To be honest, an AHI of ~2, while perhaps not ideal, doesn't seem to be sufficient to make you "feel like sh*t". Of course, people have different levels of tolerance for this kind of thing. Perhaps there are other things that disturb your sleep? Stress is a common cause, which probably won't be fixed by CPAP.
