Hello again everyone! I wrote a long reply (mostly an update with a question) but unfortunately I accidentally deleted it lol. But here's the gist of it (still pretty long haha): I'm still discovering new positive changes from the BiPAP 9 months in. My attention, thinking and focus has gotten a lot ...

Oh wow, that's good to know! Honestly, after glancing at a few threads made by people with similar issues and seeing Pugsy post examples of post-arousal breathing, I was starting to suspect it. I really don't know why I'm waking up so much though... I don't have any real reason; it's not like I'm in...

How restless are you as a sleeper? In other words, would you say you're a light sleeper prone to waking up somewhat frequently at night? I don't really think of myself as a light sleeper - I wake up maybe three or four times at most during the night (at least that I can remember), and only very bri...

Oh, one more thing! I don't think it is a mask leak thing either - my machine and OSCAR both show me as having quite a low leak rate and my seal feels good. I guess maybe it's just an anatomical thing? Edit: Wait, actually, another thing I want to add! (Promise this is the last one lol) OSCAR says m...

Hello! Back once again after realizing my treated AHI is really not great and pretty unusual for someone with sleep apnea because I saw a post on /r/cpap asking people what they had before treatment and after treatment - most people were under 2! Even when I sleep on my side (at least, I think I'm s...

Oh, thank you! I didn't read closely enough - I should have realized! I appreciate the explanation. I'm glad my breathing is normal I appreciate the answer!

Hello everyone! I'm back again because I was looking at my OSCAR data recently (I was debating whether I should talk to my pulmonologist about looking into an ASV at my next visit since my machine says my AHI in the morning is usually around 8 or 9, sometimes higher, even if I make sure to sleep on ...

Hi everyone, just wanted to update. I have been using the bipap for a few months now and I am starting to get better. I'm also making some medication changes, albeit very slowly - titrating takes a long time! I have a long train commute to my university, but I'm noticing that I usually don't sleep o...

Hi everyone! I'm back with some OSCAR stuff! I apologize for the weird times of day this was taken! Here is what today's data looks like (lol - 12pm to 2pm - I slept from around 2am to 2pm)! Please ignore the crazy leak - that's not normal for me. I think my mouth just fell open while I was asleep a...

Hi Pugsy, I take a fair deal of medications as I have several health conditions, mostly well-managed - depression (very well-treated now fortunately :) ), ADHD, and a thyroid disorder (Hashimoto's). Off the top of my head (there may be one or two more that I've forgotten), I take levothyroxine (thyr...

Ah, sorry, just read the information for newbies more carefully and saw that it's asked of us not to ask how long things will take to improve lol. In that case, I would like to amend my question to: Has anyone else experienced similar sleep problems and did it improve after starting therapy? :) Apol...

Hi everyone, I am a 24 year old man who recently started BiPAP therapy for a combination of obstructive and central sleep apnea. I have the AirCurve 10 and wear the AirFit F20 full face mask. Untreated, I have sleep apnea on what I think is the low end of severe with a typical AHI in the 40s. Accord...
