On APAP since last July.My sleep study was 30 ahi.I wear my mask 8 hour a night on average.I never feel energized.I have borderline hypothyroidism.Under meds .My ahi’s are alway below 5 and more often below 2.My oxy therapist said my setting were low of 4;high of 20 wide open I know!,!She said only she can change my settings.I have changed my pressure setting and it did lower my ahi.I don’t think she checks the therapy readings!!Slack.My Resmed 11 sends her my data wirelessly.My question is can and how do I retrieve my data using so card and get it to Oscar??Any help would be appreciated.I feel brain fog,can’t focus,lightheaded,afternoon nap and still fooled up in the evening.

If you have an SD card in your machine and a laptop or desktop computer, you're almost there. You just need a way for the computer to read the card. If there's a slot for an SD card in the computer, bingo. If there isn't, just get a cheapo card reader that can plug into a USB port on your computer.

You'll need to have the Oscar program on your computer to get the data from the SD card into the program. When you click on the link for Oscar (see below), you'll be able to click on the link that matches the kind of computer you have. But before you do that, I'd recommend that you take a look at the Installation and Data Migration Guide. (Scroll down a little to find it.) If you use Windows, this page is helpful too:
