[CPAP] Used for 60 days, want to eliminate RERA/awake [Reposted with correct format]

RE: Used for 60 days, want to eliminate RERA/awake [Reposted with correct format]
Thank you kind sir OpalRose, for confirming that it's positional apnea that's preventing me to have 0 AHI (not a pro at checking data)

Will definitely try your method - sleep sideways, choose a sufficient sized cervical collar, to make the sleep quality better.

Since we're already all using CPAP already, why not just go another extra mile to make it better? : P


Thanks again OpalRose, hopefully 30days or more from now, I can eliminate this issue partially/completely!

Just note for your own sanity, zero AHI isn't the goal. However, lower than 5 AHI, about 2-3 AHI overnight is typically a good goal. This low AHI plus a well rested and reasonably comfortable sleep are suitable expectations.
Mask Primer

Positional Apnea

Attach OSCAR, etc.
