glad to know it helped
as your body get used to the same setting parameter your ahi will slowly go down

My AHI was almost never above 1.0 and I felt great, no more daytime naps, and able to stay up late. After two months, my mahcine provider closed their local office, and the office in Erie PA said I had to get a new machine, they didnt support the Ibreeze. I got a resmed airsense 11, and now I am lucky if my if my AHI gets below 3, its normally 4-5. I feel like I did before I started, not rested, back to napping in daytime, etc. They have checked the pressure, and adjusted settings, but nothing seems to work, On the Ibreeze, I could see and adjust settings, but the resmed only allows me to adjust ramp and humidity. The therapist first adjusted EPR, then turned it off completely, with no change in results. Anyone else experience this? Any thing I could check? I hate typing this at 10:00 am, and feeeling like I need a nap already....
I think if you are using a single pressure machine, and then it might create these problems.
