help with Sleepyhead - 8-12 & 8-14 please

Post by ephraimh » Mon Aug 14, 2017 10:32 am

here are two reports, 2 days apart. What might account for the difference between the two? for the last 30 calendar days the AHI has typically been under 5 and a few days sometimes less than 1. On a few days 5 - 12.

I cannot find the bloody leak. It went up enormously when I switched to the AirCurve 10 from an ASV 9. and since the beginning have never been able to get the mask to "float" on my face so I have it cinched up very tightly with two new straps.

I see a new sleep md on Friday.

thanks muchly

In the face of the large leaks...and they are pretty deep into large leak territory the data shown when in large leak is questionable...be it nothing being flagged during the large leak or everything being flagged during large leak. We can't trust the data during the large leaks when leaks are this bad.

Now the data when not in the gray large leak area...that's accurate.

Now the big difference in AHI while the leaks were actually overall not all that different....dunno.
Sleep position maybe????
Meds????

I may have to RISE but I refuse to SHINE.

If you want to try the Eclipse mask and want a special promo code to get a little off the price...send me a private message.
