Can someone tell me whats going on here?

Post by DaveS_ » Mon Sep 20, 2021 2:05 pm

Last couple nights, OSCAR is showing alot of CA and I dont know why. Is it because of leaks? AHI has been typically around 0.73 - 2.0 and the last 2 nights I see this kinda stuff. I feel like I'm sleeping ok.

No, it has nothing to do with leaks.

To quote a sleep tech "sometimes these just happen towards the end of the night, we don't know why".

Okay sounds good to me, and yeah that was at the very end of my session within minutes of me waking up for the day. I did notice the leaks at the very end there but I was tossing and turning as I was waking up.

If it's within minutes of your waking up, they're most likely "transition apneas" as your breathing changes from asleep to awake mode, (or vice versa) (also known as 'sleep/wake junk' on the forum) . and are just something to just be ignored.

Strange things happen all the time--things we cannot explain.
We can choose to make it a big deal, and worry until we are sick about it;
or treat the minor things with no more concern than they deserve.
Humor is sometimes necessary to drive home the fact that some things
DO NOT MATTER.
Get a grip, grouchy.

Whether it's suitable or not all depends on what you imagine the aliens are doing to you.
