Cindy1952,

Please keep your Cpap therapy questions and charts in this thread.  It makes it easier for those that wish to offer advice if they can see your history in the same thread.

Thanks!   Smile

RE: Cindy1952 - (Therapy Thread)
That's progress to reduce total events by 50%. What collar and size did you get? It might be possible to tweak the fit if you can figure out what leads to events for you. It may require a little higher cushion for the chin, a looser fit at the throat, and your pillow may still be an issue. As I said when we started positional treatment, it may take more than one night, and some experimentation. I hope some members with personal experience in doing this will also offer some ideas. I know some have used a night camera to correlate events with position and gotten insight on how to treat it. Just know this is significant progress and use that as inspiration to make it better.
