Re: help! still snorting awake like a dog
Welcome! A bunch of questions for you. Do you still have Covid? And could you let us know how long you've been using CPAP? It'd also be helpful to know whether you're sleeping a fair amount without your machine. (The chart you posted shows only 3+ hours of usage.) When are the snorts/wake-ups happening? At the end of the time you use the machine, or maybe when you have obstructive apnea events? And is your median respiration rate usually around 32? (That's high; my guess is that the machine's algorithm is misinterpreting something about your flow rate, so this is probably not a big issue.)
It would be helpful it you could include all and only these graphs:
Events
Flow rate
Pressure (not mask pressure)
Leaks
Snores
Flow limitations.
