Newbie First Nite On Cpap

Monday Nites sleep results

Mask leaks .16 L/S Up some
Ahi 14.2 Lowest yet !
Ai 3.3 Lowest yet!
Hi 10.9 Lowest yet!

I tried a taller pillow and loosened mask straps a hair. I wonder if taller pillow verses flat pillow previously helped out my numbers . I have been sleeping on my back since i started cpap..Normally i slept on my stomach before.

Im very happy with my numbers the only bother i have now is the red spot on my upper lip. I think air must be leaking there and causing sorta a wind burn? I guess? I feel more energetic now the last 2 days , whitch i love.

You're doing great! Sleeping on your back may be part of your problem. Back sleeping seems to make apnea worse. Can you try sleeping on your side for a few nights to see if it helps?

well i have tried sleeping on my side the past two nites. The resultes are improved hi numbers .My hi has been in the low 6 's the past two nites. I could tell this morning that last nites numbers were good by just how well rested i felt.

i am about to go into my third night with my machine
i have a remstar plus m serier
how do you get those numbers off the machine
the only book i recieved was one on set up-nothing on gettting data
i am not sleeping all that better yet and am wondering if i need to know this data
thanks
