A chuckle~myAir/my sleepnight!
Score!  100!

07:38 usage hours   70/70!

Good mask seal       20/20

4.5 events per hour!   5/5

1 mask on/off            5/5

And here I was ticked off for last night's score, that my S10 reported as 5! when I woke up!  Dielaughing


Thank heaven I get the wonderful help I need here, using OSCAR!

Sleeprider I'll increase my pressure tonight from 13 to 13.4 as you suggested.

RE: Please help with treatment review
We're trying to keep changes fairly small because I really think you are near an optimal pressure. Let's keep an eye on the long-term results.

Feel like I didn't sleep at all
Good morning,
Woke up at 4:44 and checked my watch.  Checked a lot after that.
Sometime I was playing with my mask...not enough air.

Settings

min 13.4


Thanks for looking...appreciate your help. These charts look awful, but I don't know why.

RE: Please help with treatment review
looks good to me. for perspective, I wish I could go nearly nine hours with fewer than 3 to 6 mask offs, much less zero like yours. and have such low leaks. ahi less than 2. what do you see?

RE: Please help with treatment review
I’m grateful for the Knightsbridge strap. 

I’m careful with washroom breaks. Fingers crossed there. 

If I have multiple mask-off and washroom breaks I observe treatment isn’t working for me. And if I have to wear all this crap it had better work

I wondered if I was hyperventilating at the beginning of sleep, and just before I woke up at 4:30 or so. Insufficient airflow. ?
