Tino, she has a BRICK.
Without the leak and AHI we take for granted, she has to go by how she feels,
how often she wakes up, number of moonlight potty runs, etc, that need to be entered into a sleep log.
I would also suggest a notation of dreaming, especially nightmares.
It would even help if there is any way to record if she snores or makes other breath noises in her sleep.
(audio/video recorder?) But whatever is available, and recorded in a notebook.

When in doubt, open the case. Remember: If you can't open it, you don't own it!
Prescribed APAP range - 6-10 cm/H2O, titrated at 8.
Current range - 9.0-11.5 cm/H2O - still searching for the magic "zero night" but averaging 2.2 AHI

Re: I'm going to be really naughty....
I've been being naughty most of my life ...
Just me ... But I would double Nan's pressure numbers ... Then work your way back up a little bit at a time ... 16.5 is not gonna be alot different than 17 ... But if you can keep a log/journal, I agree is a good thing!

Re: I'm going to be really naughty....
Thanks everyone.
I've lowered the pressure to 16, so far feels fine but I had the worst cough and reflux last night, so I didn't get much sleep last night.
Depending on how much of a tax return I get I'm planning to buy a full data machine, I'm also looking into a government low interest loan as well.
