RE: Please help with treatment review
Thanks. Yes.
It's my third N20.
My first two were *large*. As I was having leakage problems I used the fit gauge. It showed *Medium*. the DME hadn't used the fit gauge.
This mask is a medium mask.

I truly appreciate a suggestion here to use a hose support...I wasn't using my hose reel. Thanks Big Guy for that suggestion.

I felt tired and worn out yesterday. I hadn't checked out OSCAR to confirm my results. Glad I did last night.

Based on your charts, it was a great night, but your feedback suggests otherwise. That is often the case. Sometimes we just have more restless nights and it's hard to pin down a reason.

It confirms how important OSCAR is for me! It helps me manage my sleep activity and OSA treatment. It takes worry away.

Here's last night's screenshot.

I have a lot of learning to do.  

I wish I knew more.  Numbers seem good. Yet I felt like yesterday's trash all day. That's why I took a screenshot.

I'm going to do a better job washing my mask insert. See if that's all it is.

Strange night.  Heavy leakage.  Followed by almost no leakage.


edit: numbers are good; OSCAR has helped me get here. Now I need to know more about OSCAR to interpret the evidence I have and use this knowledge to improve sleep quality.

Concern
[attachment=19988]
Last night I checked my machine when I woke up. 
8.1 hours use
AHI=0.1

Took my card and started OSCAR.

Somehow last night's use isn't on my card. It shows me as using the machine for about an hour. It shows me as non-compliant.

What the heck? Is this a card problem? Or is it a machine problem?

RE: Please help with treatment review
I just took my card back to my machine.

Machine data from last night is still 8.1 hours of use; AHI = 0.1

Card data and OSCAR printout on above post is still about 1 hour's use, and AHI = 0

Must be the dumb user...me.

Purge the last day of data from OSCAR and import again. It's really better to wait a while after rising to import the current day of data.

Thanks.
It was the last hour of use; I had worn mask for 8.1 hours. That's what the machine reported on its face.
