Thank you! I've posted more. My posture is usually sleeping on the side (that's how i fall asleep). My oura ring shows some movement throughout the night so i might be shifting to my back. I usually sleep with a pillow with my head an incline from my body. Please let me know if I can offer any other...

After taking a break from CPAP therapy for a palatal expansion surgery, I started up again on the advice of my doctor. I'm trying to acclimate to CPAP, but am waking up in the middle of the night. I know there's a period of adjustment, but have seen other people post their OSCAR data on this forum a...

Do you have any more details about what kind of myofunctional therapy you tried? I'm seeing a practitioner now (after speaking about it with my sleep apnea surgery doctor). I'd like to know what techniques you found helpful. Thanks What are you trying to address? I have early awakening insomnia. Wh...

I'm looking for folks who managed problems with early awakening insomnia. I've had three surgeries to clear nasal congestion after I wasn't able to tolerate CPAP. I have diagnosed Apnea with an AHI around 15. I'm just starting to be able to breathe through my nose and have been working with a myofun...

Hi Folks! Occasional visitor Captain Midnight here to share an approach that appears to work for me to lower my OSA symptoms. For some brief background, as with many of us hereabouts, I sometimes get a blog post from cpap.com and the the title of the one I received in September got my attention... ...

oh interesting! Can you tell us a bit more about your situation? I have nose obstruction and ive been seeing a few doctors, including one that helps me with myofunctional therapy. Were you normally able to breath through your nose with no problems? How long before you noticed it affecting your sleep?

Was your procedure done in a doctor's office? No, the procedure was done at a hospital as an outpatient because my insurance wouldn't allow the procedure to be done at his office, so I was put under general anesthesia for a 15 minute procedure that could have been done in a doctor's office under lo...

I've been on CPAP for a few months now, and the most common advice I've seen in the literature is that 'CPAP can take time to adjust to'. That is, for people like me with 'residual sleepiness after CPAP treatment', there appears to be a large percentage of patients that see results after several mon...

Thanks to folks on this forum, I have been successfully acclimating to my CPAP machine and managed to lower my AHI from about 10 to 5 at night, but it still has not left me any better off. My REM is still very low (about 6% of last night's sleep) and I feel no less sleepy in the mornings. Thanks to ...

Thanks for the all the help so far! It's sooo appreciated. Two things: 1. My tolerance to the CPAP is getting better, in that i get more REM than I used to while wearing it, but it's not any better than I was without it. Here is the latest night. I was fitted for a nose mask and used just that last ...

Thanks so for the reply! I increased my maximum flow and while it stopped hitting a pressure ceiling, my AHI also increased slightly and I got almost zero REM (according to my oura ring). I also feel pretty tired. Here's screenshots. I hope i followed the image guideles this time. I didn't see an op...

I'd like to some help adjusting my CPAP to overcome a few issues. I just discovered both this community and am really excited to learn from you all (I love online communities dedicated to self-improvement and open source software!!). I've attached screenshots from my OSCAR data from last night and c...
