Last night marked the first month on CPAP therapy. All in all, I seem to have gotten used to looking like Dennis Hopper in the movie "Blue Velvet" while I sleep.
I have the "one month checkup" with the DME next week. Based on the summary stats below, is there anything that I should ask them? The leak rate still seems high for a UMFF. Can anyone confirm this? Thanks!!!

AHI looks great. I would be a little concerned by the 95% leak if it were me. Its not horrible, but could definitely be better.
Congratulations

Hooray for you! Looks like you've have a great first month. Your leak rate looks acceptable to me, normal range for mask exhaust (if I understand this correctly!).
