Finally AHI under 5

Been on xPAP for a month, first few weeks my AHI was 11 to 15 and the last week it has slowly crept downwards since my "Real" APAP Machine arrived. Woke up this morning and my AHI was 4.79, I am beginning to see light at the end of the tunnel. Slept over 8 hours last night and feel half human today

You're doing better than I did when I first started. I didn't approach >5.0 until almost a year after I started. Many of us are like that - and that's okay. Your persistence is paying off. Congratulations!

Congratulations!

Isn't it the best when you actually feel pretty decent? I have been EXTREMELY lucky and have had AHIs under 5 since I started. Well, okay, it's only been 5 nights but I'm definitely encouraged!

Wishing you continued good sleep.....

Thanks everyone, the first few week were brutal getting used to the mask/machine, I came into this with the mindset that it will get better and hopefully soon. This forum taught me to be in control of my therapy, Pugsy and others have been a huge help - I thank you all

Great job...not just the 5 and under but the fact that you're feeling better. CPAP therapy is definitely something you have to keep on top of to make it work. Keep up the good work

Thanks, the last two nights have been in the 3's - now just need the feel much better part to happen
