[Treatment] New to being treated, what should I know?

[DavidAM]

Hi, I'm David, and I just turned 21. For around 5 years now, I've had progressively worsening EDS and brain fog. I'm currently in college, and pretty much failing all my classes due to how little mental energy I have all the time - I also sleep a lot. Now, after a proper in-lab PSG 2 months ago, and a WatchPat One test around 3 weeks ago - both of which showed that I'm an "atypical" patient (not sure if I have UARS or OSA yet, and my pneumologist isn't sure either) -, I finally have an APAP. I've had it for 2 nights now, and I don't really have much trouble sleeping with it. Both nights my AHI has been below 5, and last night it was at 3.2. I'm still very tired, but I understand that results may take a long time to present themselves. About this last affirmation of mine, I wanted to know: what should I, more precisely, expect of the relationship between tiredness and APAP data, especially in the beginning?
I've bought an SD-card reader, which should be arriving tomorrow, and I'm ready to start using OSCAR on my laptop to analyze my own data. I'm sorry if my question is not that specific, I still don't know much about these things. Thank y'all in advance!

Btw, should I upload my sleep data just to make it easier for future questions of mine to be answered?

Yes you should post screenshots of your oscar when asking for advice so we have data to look at, otherwise it's really just a guessing game. Here's the wiki link that shows how to present them. if you post your sleep study results it will also help us know what you need exactly, just redact all personal information.

i'm not sure exactly what you mean by "relationship between tiredness and APAP data" but it will likely take a couple weeks to really feel better. i don't think there's a hard number for which you've definitely slept well. Personally i'm happy when ahi is under 1 meaning waking up less than once an hour if no other issues woke me up either (pressure, leaks, ..).

I don't have any OSCAR data yet, what about my sleep studies' reports?

would be helpful as well but redact the personal info.

Sure, thank you!
