Newbie sharing results of lower AHIs - mr. walters - 01-10-2018

I just wanted to share latest results of my AHIs since implementing advise from board members. During December my AHIs were below 10 and since Jan 4 they've been below 2. 

Here is the link to Sleepyhead charts: https://imgur.com/a/Jn1VT

On Jan 4, I raised pressure to 11, started wearing cervical collar. I also switched from ffm to nasal pillows (much more comfortable). These are the lowest AHIs since I starting using CPAP on Dec 4, 2018. I am quite pleased with results.

Thanks

Congratulations! How do you feel?

Thanks Crimson Nape, I feel really rested and refreshed.

Congratulations. All of the hard work is paying off.

Looking good. As you found on most of your charts. The dreamstation minimum pressure does like to be just a bit under 90/95% number.

Hi mr. walters,
Seems like you are doing well, keep up the good work.

Thanks everyone for the words of encouragement.

Well done Mr Walters, it does pay to persist instead of throwing in the towel.
A drop from 10 down to 2 is very good.
You might be able to get it down lower, but you might not feel any better than you are now.

So well done on your efforts Smile
