FL: 0.6 (only 5 Flow Limitations all night)

H: 0.0 (no Hypopnea, which seems very odd to me...)
VS: 0.9 (only 7 Vib Snores all night)
.
I wish my numbers were that good. My Saturday AHI was at 7 with my Ai at 5.0, 600 seconds of apnea (ten minutes), no large leaks that could have caused this. I just ordered the $139 recording oximeter. I am not pleased.

Just a couple of questions out of curiosity for TSSleepy.

Did you have either C-Flex or A-Flex set? If so, which one and at what setting?

Did you use humidity? Pass over or heated?

Is the answer to these questions the same for both the 5 -20 setting and the 10 - 20 setting?

Thanks.

I bought that oximeter and have the software and want to see what I am doing throughout the night because I have had some really low daytime readings (88% yikes!) but I cannot get either my Vista or XP computers to recognize that I have plugged the oximeter into the USB port. So when you get yours and have installed the software and gotten readings, will you post to the forum? Maybe you can help me get mine to work...I've gone through all the threads I can find about it but so far I can't get things to work.

Just wanted to repeat these questions to TSSleepy. I think they got lost in the thread.

Thanks.
