I tested moderate to severe (AHI was in the severe range, but my oxygenation stayed pretty good, so they downgraded me to moderate). I was titrated to 7, but have since gradually upped and am at 9.5, with an average AHI of 0.6--yay. I've been at this over a year, and feel so much better. I wouldn't ever voluntarily sleep without it.

I do suggest Sleep Guy's essential oil products--they've made a big difference for me in that the whole mask/hose thing is more appealing to put on, knowing it will smell nice.
