That looks like a move in the right direction. Which collar are you using?

If you can find the time, please put a review in the Reviews forum http://www.apneaboard.com/forums/Forum-O...ct-Reviews 
It makes it easy for others to benefit from your experience and I will link to any collar reviews in the Soft Cervical Collar wiki. Doesn't need to be too fancy, just your experience in it improving therapy, comfort and anything to be aware of.

Hi everyone! Nothing to report as far as anything drastically wrong. My numbers are averaging around 2 the last several days. I would say factoring in a 1 and a high 2 every now and then. Much better numbers. Pressure still at 10, no air in stomach, collar nice and snug. They would be lower if I didn't unknowingly roll onto my back on occasion----looks like I average 2 times per night that that will happen where OA clusters occur, but numbers still very good and I feel rested. I'm an early to bed early up guy. That's what old retired guys do right? OK I'm not THAT old. My last day is tomorrow.

Have a blessed day!

Good Morning!  
Glad you are keeping us updated!  And Happy Retirement!   Relax and enjoy it, but try to keep somewhat the same schedule and find things to do that you enjoy!  Soon you'll have more time to spend here!  

I love being retired, the only thing is... sometimes I forget what day it is.

I can’t wait to join everyone ! Thank you OpalRose!

Retirement feels good!

Last night a storm blew through and I awakened worrying the electricity would go out. I disconnected my hose and looked for my blue tooth I use that runs on batteries to keep the room noise going in case the electricity went out. It didn't thank goodness and my cpap was able to stay on too. 

It rarely happens that the power goes out, BUT  when I move to a Res Med someday, I may get a back up battery.  Are all back up batteries universal to all types of machines or are they specific to brands?

I posted my chart. Numbers have been pretty decent, fluctuating of course in the 1-2 range. No clusters last night which surprised me considering I was disturbed by the storm. 

Have a great Saturday everyone!!
