[Treatment] NightmaresOfTheBottom - Therapy Help Thread

I reset EPR back to 3.  AHI last night was higher than before at 2.89, but I feel like I slept better.  I'll keep it here for a few more nights before adjusting any more settings.

Your flow limitations improved a lot with the EPR!  And if you felt more rested, the improved FLs could have something to do with it.

You can identify arousals by zooming in to about 5 minutes and looking for arousal breathing.  (See below.)  Arousal breathing is deeper and messier-looking that asleep breathing.  Arousals may take you from a deeper sleep stage to a shallower one, or from sleeping to waking.   It is quite normal to have multiple arousals per hour; what is problematic is having arousals happen so frequently that your sleep architecture is messed up, or to have arousals followed by more than a minute or two of being awake.

It would be interesting to know how well correlated arousal breathing is with heart-rate change.
