Wake up very early circa 4AM with bad headache, any help appreciated.
Hello all,

I would appreciate advice.

I woke up this morning at approx 4:15 with a really bad headache. I feel awful, very tired.

This - wake up early with headache - happens regularly - approx once per week.

It is affecting my life.

If people could look at my oscar from last night I would appreciate.

What happened at 3 AM, could that have caused headache?
Is there anything else in oscar that might be causing me a problem?
Where should i go for help with this problem? My sleep doctor tells me "everything is great with compliance, machine data etc".

Thanks to all for your help.

RE: Wake up very early circa 4AM with bad headache, any help appreciated.
Please read the link in my signature on “Organising your OSCAR charts”.

I cannot see the flow limit graph, but expect it is contributing to the problem. Adding some EPR may help.

Min pressure 11
Max pressure 15
EPR 2
No ramp

That should help with the flow limitations that are causing pressure to rise, which may be waking you up after a certain point. Reducing the FL’s will help keep pressure lower and may give a better nights rest.

Depending on how things go you may be able to lower min pressure to 10, but lets see how it goes first.
