Self treatment in the age of Corona - Traylow - 04-28-2020

Ok,  so have been having apnea issues and cant get a sleep study. So bought my own cpap and have tried it out. Could use feedback on OSCAR output. Do I have real apnea or just a heavy snorer?

Welcome.

First ignore VS2

I can only say that any apnea that you have is well treated. How do you feel? Do you feel a difference with the machine? If so what?

I would like you to set the machine to
Min=4 Max=4 the min that the machine can be set for only for 1 night.
This is to set the machine to provide as little help as possible. And see what events are captured. Then we may be able to say that you have sleep apnea. That is as close as we can get to a diagnostic sleep study.

That low of a pressure may be problematic but please try.
