I applaud you for doing that. I think that sets a good example for the rest of us any time we post something that could easily be misunderstood or misread to mean something we didn't intend. That, in my opinion, is a much better approach than simply saying "I stick by my statement," which is what some might do in that circumstance.
evidence of it every time I visit the forum
A help forum attracts those needing help. Those
not needing help with their therapy, who got a good pressure Rx and are happily PAPping away every night, have no reason to even find out about this forum. That makes the anecdotal "evidence" of reading this forum less than useful for estimating good-lab-titration success or failure, in my opinion.
And as one respected professional who posts here has pointed out, a good many of those coming here for help end up finding out that their residual troubles are about aspects of sleep unrelated to PAP therapy. That may be why tweaking doesn't always pay off for everyone here.
I have a number of friends on PAP therapy. Most of them got handed a machine that they now use every night, without problems, and they love it. I have checked their data to confirm their low leak and low home-machine-estimated AHIs. I am therefore glad they have full-data machines. But I have no reason to suggest they get software at this point, since they are having no troubles.
But I understand, ro(o)ster. Every rooster I've ever known has tended to dig in his heels when cornered against the chicken wire. I've had my share of spur cuts over the years, believe you me. I still likes me my yard bird, though.
