What I think may have happened is you were using the much higher pressures when the outage happened. Your body and brain was used to those higher pressures but when you restarted the machine and it went back to the normal lower start up pressures the brain was wanting and expecting the higher press...

I tried attaching my Oscar data, but it says "board attachment quota has been reached".

You can find the data here instead: https://i.imgur.com/K9Bm3Fi.png

Last night, one of the breakers in my house was tripped and my BiPAP machine lost power briefly. (See data attached below) I have no idea what caused the breaker to trip. This has never happened before. But I woke up 10-15 minutes after it happened, reset the breaker, the Resmed came back on, and I ...

It sort of raises the question: would a neck brace conceivably fix my entire sleep problem, and I wouldn't need the machine? But I'm getting ahead of myself. not a neck brace; a firm foam cervical collar. there is a big difference. typically a neck brace is worn while upright. it is made of sturdie...

And my go-to question: how are you feeling? I forgot to answer this. I'm feeling...fine. I am more tired than usual today. I feel like I could take a nap to be honest which normally I don't experience anymore. I could probably push through it, but I am finding it more difficult to concentrate today.

It sounds like I need to give that neck brace a try. Here's the problem: Most nights (not last night, I'm not sure why) I wake up at some point, and I take the mask off for 15-20 minutes. I've tried to examine why I'm doing this when it happens. Partly, I'm just tired of this contraption strapped to...

My AHI seems to be getting worse. I've made only a few adjustments to IPAP/EPAP. Last night's data is the second worst I've had since I started. Is it "bad" though? I'm not sure. I guess I am going to set my IPAP back to 25 because I'm capping so often at 24. More concerning to me is that my AHI has...

The snore data is confusing to me, and I don't know what flow limitations even are. I ask my wife if she can hear me snoring, and she says never. She says she can't even tell if I'm asleep or not, so I don't understand that. I am going to leave things alone for a couple of weeks. I'm sort of tired o...

Last night going back to 8.0 EPAP

So, I got the Philips Dreamwear Full Face Mask. The mask leaks went away the first night. However, the silicone deeply irritated my skin. I loved the shape of the new mask and everything, but I just can't seem to wear it. Pretty annoying. So, in the middle of the night I literally put my F20 back on...

I feel fine. On the whole, my life has improved with the machine; I don't get as sleepy as I used to. The whole thing sort of peaked for me when I fell asleep talking to my wife one day. I knew there was a serious problem. But I don't take naps daily anymore. I've only had a couple naps since I star...

Pushed EPAP to 7.0.

I feel good. I've had this permanent crease developing on my face though from the mask. Every day it is red. I think the mask must be on too tight. I have a new anti-leak strap coming in from PadACheek soon: https://www.padacheek.com/product-page/f20-anti-leak-strap I am hoping with this strap I can...

I just started therapy a couple weeks ago, and I've already turned ramp off. I was only using 5 minutes anyway, but I barely noticed it anyway. The change didn't matter much to me, but perhaps someone with a stronger minimum might want it?

I believe this was my best night so far since I've started.
