So happy to have found this awesome community while researching my CPAP machine. I'm a new user, only had my machine about ~2 weeks, and I'm just now getting used to it. I've suffered from horrible sleep my whole life (34 years), and recently had a sleep study that confirmed Sleep Apena. I believe my AHI was 16 for the test.
Since having the machine, my AHI numbers look good, I figured I'd reach out and see if anyone has any feedback on my OSCAR data, to see if I can further adjust my setup.
I'd say it's going well so far, I'm adjusting to my mask and feel like I'm sleeping a bit better than I used to, and have more vivid dreams. But I'm still often tired / groggy in the morning, and I feel like looking at OSCAR shows a lot of events / flags. Shouldn't it be clearer or have less events?
Also when setting up my device, my technician was very brisk and barely explained anything to me, so I've had to learn a lot through Google and fear I'm missing out on additional knowledge.
I've uploaded the last 3 days worth of OSCAR data to my post, please let me know if you have any feedback or suggestions and thank you in advance!
