Thought I had this whipped...

Thought I had this whipped...
Melatonin not working as well for insomnia as before. Increasingly poor sleep (feels like I have only slept an hour). Oscar stats seem to have not changed. Could someone take a look and see what's going on?

The only thing that kind of sticks out is that your flow rate looks rough/inconsistent.
Post some 4 minute duration examples of your breathing so we can see if there is a reason for this. When doing so replace the pressure graph with mask pressure.

The fluctuating breath amplitude is a little odd, not sure if it is a periodic breathing issue or just inconsistent breathing. I dug through your original thread and see it has always been present, also saw that you have RSBD which I assume has the potential to be related. Is the melatonin sufficient to treat your RSBD? I know it helps many people but sometimes takes high doses.
I am not really sold that there is a breathing issue CPAP can fix but if you wanted to try things I would try either lower or higher PS (say 2 or 4) to see if either have an effect. You would have to focus more on how you feel, the data will likely tell us very little unless higher PS starts causes central apnea.

On another apnea forum, some folks found that taking Glycine, an amino acid that can be ordered online, helps them sleep better. Here's a link to some: https://www.amazon.com/Earthborn-Element...WNrPXRydWU=
