One Week In, Curious about report
Hi everyone,

Complete newbie here.  Have been using my machine a week and on top of a nasty headcold.  Was curious about my OSCAR report, which I am attaching here from last night.  I think 6 minimum pressure is too low.  Am I correct?  Any other observations?  I do have charts from earlier in the week.

Thanks so much for doing what you all do!!!   Thanks

What is the Flex setting? Set it to 2 if not already set.

Flow Limitations and snores will drive the pressure up, but also could be because you’ve been sick.

It wouldn’t hurt to move your minimum pressure up to 7cm and see if that helps with some of the events.

Flex is 3.  I tried 2 and 1 for 1 night each and was uncomfortable.  Is 3 ok?
