My data was fantastic, upon waking. AHI 0.4 Best ever !!! Almost had a perfect night of sleep. Wish, I could share all my data, but data slowly improved over the past two months, been sleeping persistent 7-8 hours, sometimes 9,. The more I acquired sleep consistency, the better my data looked, the change I have noticed is, I am not waking up during sleep, I am dreaming consistently every night, and remembering my dreams. I haven't remembered dreaming in a few years, just falling asleep and waking up. I'm used to sleeping with mask, no more adjustments during sleep, or getting up to go bathroom occassionally.
Believe the fear of deep sleep is behind me now, I became an insomniac, fear of falling asleep, waking gasping for air. I am now finally at peace, with my air buddy cpap. I am confident, cpap keeps me breathing. So, in my case psychological effects, contributed to poor quality sleep.
I will be the first to admit, I was terrified of falling asleep. But now, I go to bed early, wake up early, like a normal person in society.
I've only seen my sleep doc once since, I began treatment. So, happy I took matters into my own care, I was afraid to tweak my own pressure, but info at the forum, some patience, and alot of reading, helped me achieve a positive goal.
Thanks again everyone. Good luck to all, on your journey.
