New user - Third night. Anything I need to improve?

Post by Melinar » Sat Apr 26, 2025 11:32 am

I got diagnosed just a few weeks ago in a sleep lab. AHI of 50+ and O2 reached 82% short term. Suffering from it (which is why I went to a doctor) and heavy snoring.

Now I got my machine: Resmed 11 + a N20 mask. O2 measuring and pulse with a wellue ring. This is my third night with the machine. Now I would love some feedback if there is anything critical I should look into.
CPAP is set to 9 full time. I switched off ramp. Do not need it and it annoys me to wake up do something different than what I went to bed with.

The machine says it is mostly fine - good mask fit and much less AHIs. O2 value improved a lot. No more snoring according to my nightly recording. I have no problem with an dry mouth or something similar. But I am not really feeling better. Of course I sleep a bit worse while adjusting to the mask. Getting back to sleep when waking up takes longer.
So just wanted to get some feedback from experienced users: Am I on the right track or would you imrprove something?


Edit: Image did not work, so now added a link to imgur. Working for me at least, so hope for you too :)
