No left side bar, just the actual charts?

Fair, I guess. That was just a test, to see if I could link to imgur, like that instead of doing an attachment to here since it is getting full again.
looks like i'm talking past you, so let me give you an example of what is wanted-

yours contains the long horizontal ahi chart, that is what is not needed.

that make sense?
people say i'm self absorbed.
but that's enough about them.

Can you explain this? regarding the flow rate graph
I was looking over my OSCAR DATA from last night, when I saw this.

As this is my therapy thread, I wanted to continue on this thread.
I got my AS11 on July 25, 2022.and I will leave my Max
I'm wondering if maybe I should raise my Min pressure to 13 cmH2O?
Only 12 out of the last 67 days has my avg. pressure been below 13 cmH2O
Any suggestions?

P.S. I finally got the Wellue O2 Ring, so that I can monitor my SpO2 during the night

How are you feeling? And how are you sleeping? Is there a problem you are trying to solve by increasing the pressure? If so, what is it?

Because right now there's nothing in that summary data that indicates you need to do something vastly different.

Your AHI is exceptionally low. Your leaks are far better under control than they were in July. And it doesn't really seem that you particularly need to bump that min pressure up by 1cm. On the other hand, if you are comfortable getting to sleep with the pressure at 12cm, then bumping it up to 13cm is probably not going to create any new problems for you. It's just that I don't see that it will fix anything given your current summary data.

Now if you wanted to post some daily data, it might be that I'd see something in that which might say increasing the pressure might be warranted.

So it boils down to: How are you feeling? How are you sleeping? Is there a problem you are trying to solve by increasing the pressure? If so, what is it?

There is no working link to the image file.

So we can't see what you are talking about.

Upload that image to imgur and use the BBCode button to insert the image (and its link) here in your post.
