Re: Need some help getting AHI down even further (OSCAR)
I thought I'd post an update after a lot more learning on this apnea journey. The F30i mask + CPAP pillow + linen mask liner only got me so far. I was still having fairly inconsistent results with AHI ranging between 3 and 8. I bought the F&P Vitera full face mask and that was actually considerably ...

Re: Need some help getting AHI down even further (OSCAR)
Thanks for the suggestions. I got a 2.8 last night with no changes! Yeah the CPAP pillow is both low and firm (name of it in my signature). I am a side sleeper but I know I unintentionally end up on my back sometimes. I occasionally briefly wake up in that position too with no leaks which may be a s...

Re: F30i Darth Vader Inhale Noise
I don't know if ear plugs would help or not. Give them a try but the Darth Vader noise is most likely conductive noise and ear plugs might make it worse. Thanks for your reply! Ok that's good to know. I have just now realised as well my frame size is incorrect (using a large instead of medium) so I...

F30i Darth Vader Inhale Noise
Hello, i'm a newbie CPAP user and opted for the AirSense 11 Autoset with F30i mask as I prefer sleeping on my side (and even front). Immediately first thing I noticed after strapping it on was the volume of inhalation breaths coming from the mask even with a good tight fit that is definitely prevent...
