Newbie sharing results of lower AHIs
I just wanted to share latest results of my AHIs since implementing advise from board members. During December my AHIs were below 10 and since Jan 4 they've been below 2.
Here is the link to Sleepyhead charts:

On Jan 4, I raised pressure to 11, started wearing cervical collar. I also switched from ffm to nasal pillows (much more comfortable). These are the lowest AHIs since I starting using CPAP on Dec 4, 2018. I am quite pleased with results.
Thanks

Thanks Crimson Nape, I feel really rested and refreshed.
RE: Newbie sharing results of lower AHIs
Congratulations. All of the hard work is paying off.
RE: Newbie sharing results of lower AHIs
Looking good. As you found on most of your charts. The dreamstation minimum pressure does like to be just a bit under 90/95% number.

Thanks everyone for the words of encouragement.

Well done Mr Walters, it does pay to persist instead of throwing in the towel.
A drop from 10 down to 2 is very good.
You might be able to get it down lower, but you might not feel any better than you are now.
So well done on your efforts
I am NOT a doctor. I try to help, but do not take what I say as medical advice.
Every journey, however large or small starts with the first step.
