Single Hypopnea that didn't happen
Last night, the S9 Autoset reported only a single hypopnea.
Almost a 0.0.
But the hypopnea never happened; zooming in on it with SleepyHead shows VERY CLEARLY that the breathing was continuous (not even a gap) with only a very slight irregularity (marginal reduction in flow.)
So it really was a 0.0 night despite what the machine says.
Also, I didn't get up for the bathroom at all (even with CPAP, I have gotten up 1 time almost every night) AND I was never awake for a long time when rolling over etc.
I did wake a couple of times to roll over or fix a leak in the nasal pillow, but not enough to call it a sleepless period.
Just saying, there's no question here or deep message.
All in all, I am averaging 0.3 for the last 7 nights with a max of 0.9.
Almost a 0.0.
