Increased p.s. to 5 to 6. Ahi 2.2. Thanks pugsy. A little more leakage with higher pressure 85% mask fit. But acceptable

Thanks pugsy. I was thinking the pressure support of 5-6 as well. I will make that change tonight

It has been a few weeks since I posted. Things had been going OK with cpap therapy. But the past week or so, my AHI has been creeping up everyday. I feel OK. Last night was my worst in a long time. AHI 8.7. What is strange is I feel OK. I actually have been taking a little better care of myself. I h...

I had AHI of 2.6 last night. Mostly HA and 2 CA. Mask fit at 84%. I will keep these settings for now.

Ok. I can make those changes in oscar later. Oscar so very rarely has my stats, but it did last night. Not sure why it was able to report last night. Maybe because i started session, then turned it off , changed flex and restarted. Dream mapper respironcs app says 74% mask fit.

I went ahead and made several changes. I increased EPAP to 12.5, Increased PS to 4-5 and increased humidity to 5. Flex increased to 3. I think this was a pretty good night. Had just enough water to handle the humidity level. Did have some leakage though

I thought I felt OK, but now that headache is back. Not as bad as it was though. Prior to reaching out on this board, it was 24/7 for a couple of months. I do think it is a combination of sinus blockage along with pressure. The longer I sleep, the worse it is. Usually worse on the weekends when I ge...

AHI 5.2. Not used to having this many OA or CA. Also, the FL is being calculated into the AHI #. Would we consider the AHI over-inflated because of that? I feel good. This is the 1st time that I have ever had no large leaks. I assume you are going to want me to up the EPAP. Also, with the classic hu...

I have used the generic simply saline a couple of times. It did help. It is a little pricey. So I currently use a saline in a squeeze bottle every night. Not quite as effective as pressurised can, but it helps

Still had some leakage, but not as severe. I felt both the change to humidification and flex helped tremendously. I could breathe much better. AHI is 3.1. Feel much better today.

I found the classic mode humidification and it is on C4 now and bi-flex 2. I will leave minimum epap on 12 for now.

Not a good night. I woke up in the middle of the night and one of my straps was totally undone and appears from encore, that it was for over an hour. I suspect that I was having issues and ripped it off. I noticed before I fell asleep I was having some issues with exhaling with EPAP. Usually within ...

Ok. I will up the epap to 12 tonight

Since lowering my epap to 11 and pressure support to 4, i have more episodes and snoring but i feel better. Stll leaking but leak rates are less. No more headaches. So, my question now is, is ahi 5 to 7 ok? Up from 1 to 2. Most are ha and fl. A couple of oa and ca, but nothing alarming me there. Osc...

Thanks okie. I was told a friend that the same things you mentioned about the throat surgery. He reccomended that I get the sinus surgery ent dr suggested. I just want to be able to breathe again. I expect to still be on bipap even if i get the sinus surgery. I am hoping that it could improve my the...
