Thanks for your reply! The little one is now 18 but has continued to remain pretty interesting in the years since the early medical drama....Mudrock63 wrote:How are you feeling now? Any improvement since your earlier posts? Just saw your thread for the first time today. I think a lot of times we don't give ourselves enough credit for all the other stuff going on in our lives that can disrupt sleep. Having a little one with medical problems makes it tough. Hope that also has gotten better.
Your AHI seems to be really good. I think people also don't give enough credence to paying off the sleep debt they have accumulated after years and years of SA.
Hope you are doing well and feeling better.
I certainly have other things going on that disrupt sleep - depression, fibro, sinus oddities. So I'm looking into any and all approaches to improve my sleep as well as being patient in making up for many years of sleep debt. I feel better than pre-treatment but I'm still fatigued despite treatment, good sleep habits (good-er TBH )
My numbers are definitely better on the current settings of 7-14.
I started at 4-18 with an average AHI of 3.59 over the first two months of therapy.
Then 6-14 which improved my average to 1.45 or so between late November and mid-January.
I see things on my charts that I'm still trying to figure out...the length of events, the particular waveforms, etc. Trying to understand what's happening with the events that I'm having in hopes of improving them - I realize I may reach the limit of what can be done with the therapy but I'm committed to it.
I've gotten a lot of really helpful info on the forum and I'm glad it's here.
