A sleep specialist! My ENT doesn't even compare!

I went to see a pulmonologist who specializes in sleep disorders. He lowered my CPAP because when he re-read my sleep study he found that higher pressures were provoking central apneas.

Encore Pro 1.8 losing data

Hi guys,
My encore pro 1.8 lost data for 2 straight nights. It could give me the average AHI but not the breakdown by pressure or by hour. What gives? Do I have to erase my card?

How long does it take for the AHI to drop?

In my sleep study I had an AHI of 44. After 3 weeks on APAP my AHI is down to 4.7. How long does it take to get close to 0?

By a nose...

Thank you, Dreamstalker, but I am a pure nose breather. My latest AHI last night was 4.6 on a Comfort Gel. Before that I was on a nasal pillow. I appreciate your help.

Newbie with questions about AHI

Hello all. I'm on my 5th day on an APAP and dropped my AHI from 44 at the sleep study to about 10. In the study I dropped to 0 at 12cm but I can't seem to come close to this so far at home and don't know why.
