Data report

[TowneSA]

Ok, here is data from my 22nd day on the cpap.
I feet like this was my best night on the machine based on me not waking up 5 or 6 times messing with the mask and leaks.

Thoughts from you pros at this?

Looks pretty darn good.
The one little cluster of events in the middle of the night is related to the brief large leak time but otherwise unremarkable.

It takes a while for the brain to come to look at the mask and machine as its new best friend.
Often we wake up just because the brain is wanting to alert us to the fact that there is something strange attached to our face. With time the brain comes to accept this new friend as the new normal and those awakenings will go away.
I think it was about a month before my brain was okay with the new stuff on my face.
Used to wake up just to feel the mask...yep it's there...sort of thing. No real problems with the mask like leak or discomfort but just "it's there" type of thing.

Thanks for the feedback. Last night (did not pull data yet) was the worst I have had, I got so frustrated with leaks that I yanked the mask off and tossed it in the corner and then remembered the cost of it all and couldn't go back to sleep until I could get it back on. GRRRR!!!

Anyway. Great info on this site and I really appreciate all the work you veterans put into answering our questions.
