cannot sleep and Resmed Aircurve incorrect results.

[bran]

Have Peripheral neuropathy amongst other issues and the tingling keeping me awake. So been taking Zolpidem(and now hooked) and trying to taper off, but need my sleep. The biggest issue now is that Zolpidem supposedly messes with deep sleep activity which according to my watch, I'm getting less than 5%. Plus the Ultra watch and others can record they say sleep apnea events and its been showing "elevated" for quite a while. The main issue is that I lie awake for hours at times, and therefore my machine is recording incorrectly. Any tips? Aircurve 11. Been using various Nasal pillows and that's also been interfering with the lining of my nostrils

When you lie awake for hours, the machine will record usage, not sleep. If it records apneas, they may be CAs.
