Overscore means over-estimate or exaggerate. Err on the side of caution.

You can upload as many SleepHQ as you like individually, or share your file (I think. I'm not on particularly good terms with them right now, they're blocking a lot of the stuff I do over there).

With sharing the file you mean I could send the file that is stored on my card of the machine, right? how should I send it? via email?

And what do you do? are you a professional in this field? because you said they are blocking what you're doing. Sleephq?

No, you give me access to your data on SleepHQ. I don't how how it's done cause I have no intention of paying for it and I think it's only available to Pro members. Or just put up a couple links to the last few days. Probably better so others can view and comment.

They're blocking me cause I point out their blunders (OK, maybe not in the most tactful way) and they don't like admitting mistakes.

Oh wait I think it's called Sharing Your Account.

Alright. Home again an uploaded my recent data to sleephq. Attached some links:

General overview over last 12 months (might be interesting reg. AHI development):
https://sleephq.com/public/f2bb8e54-fb1 ... 9ae26185e5

Last seven days starting with this night - those were mostly good in terms of AHI, but periodic breathing present nevertheless:

Unfortunately with the free plan I cannot share my worst nights with CSR. If you want to see any other day within the last month, let me know.

What I forgot to mention: I also use the Wellue Oxyring. Since I'm on CPAP my lowest desaturations are 94% with an average of 97% per night. so in terms of oxygen, it seems everything is fine. that's at least something I guess...

Do you live at a high altitude? Or do you take any opioid medications?

Absolutely not. I live roughly 200m above sea level and never took opiods. Also I do not suffer from any heart conditions (except paroxysmal afib every few months for a few hours).

OK, thanks; just wanted to confirm that as the experts ponder your situation.

OK I'm ready with my guess. I'll give the other guys some time. RS1 should get this. Probably Jeff. Definitely none of the PR SLers.

Can you share your guess with me? or what will happen next? I have to admit I'm a bit worried about you not just giving me your opinion. And what are the PR SLers?

Not what.

They're who.

PaleRider ShitListers (aka DKs, or Dunning-Krugers).

ok I guess that's the nick names of some of the users here?!

Again my questions: Will you share eyour thoughts with me or wait until the other two you mentioned commented as well? just want to understand the strategy...

Not so much a strategy-- more like a process. Analyzing sleep requires looking at about 12 channels of data. You got like 2. Trying to come up with a conclusion therefore requires a lot of WAGs and assumptions. Hence, what I come up with is only a guess, and it might be totally wrong. Getting the opinions of seasoned users usually prevents me from looking like a CFI.

Of course, none of us care, cause we're all a bunch of CFIs anyway!!
