I slept a couple nights with the full face mask now and the leak rate went down by a lot. However, I noticed AHI and flow limitations went up.

Any suggestions?

Here's one night with using double the usual tape. At one point I woke up because of something, disconnected the mask to start breathing through my mouth and then realized it was all taped up. Not sure what was going on there. Maybe acid reflux? (I added a zoom in of that event, and also added the p...

Hi pianoman37, I just found your post after searching the forums for adrenaline issues. I think I'm in a very similar boat. Adrenaline spikes when dosing off, feeling terrible in the morning, weird heart rate/tachycardia, anxiety, panic attacks, GI issues. Did you manage to feel better now? Anything...

Here's another night. I raised the pressure by 1 and was only using mouth tape, not the chin strap. The results show some more mouth leaks. I tried raising the EPR, but I always feel it kicks in before I'm done inhaling, which makes it harder for me to fall asleep. I also got the feeling of getting ...

Thanks Pugsy those are great replies! This is great help! I have some more questions: needs a sleep study with a Pes device Can you give me some pointer to this Pes device?

The data the machine collects is more along the lines of OSA data which isn't the same as UARS data. It really can't detect the more minor changes that are kn...

Here's another night: I raised both min pressure and EPR by 1 and I think I feel slightly better. However, I noticed I'm still getting mouth leeks even though I'm wearing both chin strap and mouth tape right now. Also I noticed the lower part of my nose is irritated in the morning (feels like when y...

I've slept a couple nights with my CPAP now, but I feel I'm still doing worse than just sleeping on the side without the CPAP. Here's my sleep studies for reference: Here are the results from my earlier in-lab study: AHI: 10, RDI: not scored https://imgur.com/a/5jHyNvu https://imgur.com/a/ChqAO3F Ne...
