Den
Just wanted to report my AHI over night wad 1.63! I think what must have happened yesterday was due to resetting my machine for daylight savings time and the time I normally get up and the time I took my nap the machine thought it was all the same day so it addd up all eve ts from both days. At 6:00 am machine reported just the night before and things were fine
Thanks for responding to my post and have a great holiday!

I get my Flow Limitation graph:

"Somebody" is misusing the SPAM button.
Several posts are missing from last night.

I noticed that also Chunky Frog and Den is now Den.

That's what happened? Funny...I thought it a disagreement, not a shady sales pitch...or other things I'd consider SPAM (including the questionable meat in a can). Guess I'd better hop on the happy agree with everyone or ELSE bandwagon.

Yeah, I noticed that this morning, too.
The "deleted" posts are still visible to read if you do a reply to this thread and look back through the posts.

ResScan checks for Flow Limitation (FL) by checking the "flatness" of the respiration waves compared to a sinusoidal curve.

Here is an example:



This is the way that ResScan assigns an FL weight level scale:





My FL is minimal compared to some other posters on this board who seem to have real bad cases. Here is an example of a bad case (hopefully not my) as diagnosed by ResScan:

you'll learn that you can't actually tell avi123 anything.

he'll just post back nonsense and cherry picked things he finds online, leading to more confusion.

Hmmm, I don't see any differences in how ResScan and SleepyHead present this particular chart. Are there any? I used to have FLs similar to yours, which was not good for me at all, but I managed to run them into the ground with a higher pressure, only a very few occasional spikes slip through.

okie, but this FL business has become my idee fixe (maybe I have over-read Dr. Krakow's stuff, which has been quite applicable based on my very limited but personal experience so far).

Around here lately, it could be a boat with a hole in it and no oars.
