AHI steady
I made a tweak to my machine (Respironics AutoSV) which had been giving me AHI beteeen 1 and 1.9 -2.0. After the tweak I have gone 5 days now and one AHI was .1 and every other one has been 0.0. Sleepyhead shows me breathing all night long and the waveforms don't show any apneas. Even so I am starting to freak out as I have been on therapy for nine years and all of a sudden I'm getting 0 after 0 after 0. Has anyone else achieved this? Really strange.

To be on the safe side, unplug your machine for about 30 minutes then back in and see how your data looks the next day.
