daBee, thanks for posting what you have available from Oscar. Unfortunately all it is showing are your summary data. I'm not sure why that is, but do make sure you have the SD card well-seated in the slot when you return it to the machine. And leave it there all night long. Resmed machines only rec...

I'm not posting my stats. Bye. Read what I posted. she did. more to the graphs than just events. True. Just in case there's a misunderstanding, I'll add that "stats" and "graphs" are not the same. It's the graphs we need to see in order to have any chance of understanding what's going on.

Did you ever ask the doctor what he meant by "physiological"? The machines will record breathing cessations no matter whether you're asleep or awake. You could be changing position in bed, taking a big breath, and then waiting till enough CO2 has accumulated in you blood to trigger the next breath. ...

Why not a ramp of 8 or 9?

You've got ramp set up on 6 - and there's a lot of snoring going on when you're there. It's too low for you. Look a the zigzag pattern of the flow: your apneas, flow limitation and snores pop up once the pressure has dropped. In other words, the machine doesn't realize that the minimal pressure is t...

Tips for what?

So yes, being healthy is the objective . And because all my health issues are chronic rather than acute, the only way to try to deal with them is to try to understand what's going on, and make the appropriate adjustments to my lifestyle, medication, and CPAP use. That sounds like what you should do...

Frequency Oscillation Technology - that's what the machine uses to recognize open vs. closed airway.

Blocked by "Imperva", having to use a VPN. Almost three months on - still blocked. Still having to use a VPN. Imagine all those people who may have learned of the forum and are possibly blocked and don't know about using VPN. Nobody at the company who created this forum seems to care. But, then it'...

My understanding is that sleep disordered breathing is more complex than just AHI (let me know if this is wrong), You're absolutely right. Look at how frequently your pressure is going up an down. Look at the flow limitations. Look at the leaks. ResMed machines are quick to respond to flow limitati...

What version are you using? Good point. New machines need newer OSCAR versions. StickyOSCAR-160--version-update-to-161-available Posted by ozij, who is still wrongfully banned by the so called security program, still using vpn, still ignored by cpaptalk's tech support (assuming such an antity exist...

Everyone has the right to their opinion and you are hearing a different opinion. And everyone has an obligation to find out what's best for them. Listen to the different opinions, experiment, track your results log how you feel, and go by the info you have about yourself. You wouldn't set an insuli...

When a person describes what they're experiencing, there's no need to "explain". The facts you state are correct - a CPAP's pressure is higher than the ambient pressure. The other facts are also correct: for some people, once they start using CPAP a pressure of 7 feels not enough. My guess is that t...

I also note that your FLs improved when you raised your EPR from 1 to 3, so that pressure differential is helpful to you. When I use this link https://sleephq.com/public/teams/share_links/0446151a-bfe6-47e6-b896-2fbdaf31e052/dashboard and move through the nights I see nightly pressure changes. Not ...

The single night you posted is at a fixed pressure of 11.2 It shows bouts of flow limitations which might be the reason for your crappy sleep. In order to really understand what's going on, we'd have to see more examples of your nightly results, and how long you stayed at each pressure. Based on thi...
