Re: Newbie-almost 2 months along, managing ok, (sorta), but CA questions.
... in the 6 to 9 range. Not sure why the variation, but perhaps it's because I use a Nasal cushion type mask and I always have some degree of nasal congestion. Some nights are worse than others. Perhaps there's a "cause and effect". Thank you.

Re: Persistent fatigue, CA
Yes, I do have nasal congestion. But I have no idea if that is causing the Flow limitations. Ahhhh....the machine only measures air flow BUT it can't tell the difference from when there is a reduction in air flow in the nasal cavity ...

Re: Treating flow limitations not logged by ResMed
... Perhaps..... but I got the impression that you were afraid to increase the pressure (which is what is need for flow limitations unless nasal congestion is what you are seeing) or use more EPR (if you could but I know you can't with current machine) because you felt like you had treatment ...

Re: Persistent fatigue, CA
... to the auto adjusting algorithm those FLs need to be better prevented because FLs can disturb sleep. I assume we can't blame the FLs on nasal congestion????? If you are having nasal congestion then we have a different discussion. Could those FLs be a factor in arousals.....it's possible. I ...

Anyone use PAPMD cpap filters?
... The on-line reviews are very positive but I'm curious about the thoughts of this group. I'm a long time cpap user and have been having significant congestion in the morning.

Re: Help me interpret my Oscar data
Do you take any medications of any kind? If so, what? Are you having much nasal congestion at night? Why the upper limit of 13 cm? Any special reason? Are you waking often during the night? I take a few medications daily: Duloxetine, Propranolol and Promethazine. ...

Re: Feedback on first night OSCAR data
... 3. I rarely seem to go over 15. Could I just set my max at 15? What are you trying to accomplish? If you had something untoward going on, like bad congestion from a cold, the machine might need to go higher with the pressure. It won't go any higher than your needs. Personally, I advise most people ...
