First night with CPAP

Here is my data (i hope) .....

Felt pretty good all night though I struggled a bit with leaks. Once I was awake I could not fall back asleep with the full pressure so I reset my machine to give me the ramp.

That is really good for a first night!
Congratulations on handling the wakes up well!

That's very good for your first night. When you get the leaks under control and get more use to the equipment you should see your readings go lower.
If you continue to have problem with the leaks take a look at this site Padacheek.com. They have some items that can help.

I think reading these forums prepared me for it.
