^^^^THIS^^^^ Yep, exactly. With CPAP settings there’s a lot of “try it and see,” but it helps to change only one thing at a time and give it a few nights if you can, unless it’s clearly making sleep worse. For this situation, I’d be looking at comfort and actual sleep quality as much as the AHI. A ...

I just had to ask my Doc to change the RX.

My sleep nurse practitioner never even saw me face to face and just gas lights me if I reach out with questions.

this is not at all unusual and it's another reason we're here.

My other thought is to bring the pressure back up to 11 and then turn EPR on to 1. My sleep clinic is suggesting a Max pressure of 12, and even 14 with EPR turned on. another tip: when making a change in your settings (and i'm glad you know how to do that) make ONE change at a time and stick with f...

Thank you! I just updated my profile, and clips of some OSCAR charts are attached. Any advice would be appreciated!

you are entirely welcome! but your profile didn't update with the machine and mask.

other than that, i will step aside and let my "betters" advise you.

If I were to summarize the last 8 months of CPAP treatment I would describe it as absolute hell. welcome to the zoo! sorry your having a hard time. dunno if it's comforting to you or not, but the majority of us had trouble at the beginning so we're here to help. mostly what we need is data from you...
