Super strange flow rate pattern combining b-level with Velumount soft palate brace

Super strange flow rate pattern combining b-level with Velumount soft palate brace
Hi all,

I just started experimenting with Velumount soft palate brace to solve my palatal prolapse. All settings of the past can be thrown out of the window, so far is clear. I really need to restart finding optimal settings. I will post a separate thread on my Velumount experiences later as it will be helpful for many who consider this device.

Anyway, now I just want to show this extremely weird flow rate. This happened right before I woke up with a central apnea and some large palatal prolapses. In woke up while dreaming to be electrocuted, so my body clearly was in a stressful mode as my heart rate also implies. I also felt like I had 1 large aerophagia event just before waking up.

I suspect my pressure and/or pressure support and/or trigger sensitivity are to high, as I still need to learn about the impact of the Velumount. It definitely has positive impact for me.

Just wondering if this flow pattern can be explained? Obviously the challenge for next night is to avoid this ;-).
