ZERO AHI First time
Well I guess miricals can happen for those who are patient and persistant.
First time I hit ZERO AHI. Previous day was 0.12. One H in over 8 hours of sleep. WOW. [attachment=901]

RE: ZERO AHI First time
Good job!
Mine seems to hover between zero and 1.5 these days. It's nice to get to this point. I think many of us can if we just spend the time to enjoy the therapy for what it can do, and adjust to it as best we can. But even those that are stuck around 5 or so are doing really great. It's really a good feeling to see how well people do after spending a little time around here and learning to care for their bodies.

Congratulations! I'm yet to see a zero AHI, but I live in hope.
You need to watch out for leaks though. Your leaks are pretty high, which is pushing the pressure up to maximum. If you can control the leaks you'll achieve an even more restful sleep at a lower pressure.

Quite correct - I missed the fact Bwexler is using a PR machine. Apologies.

RE: ZERO AHI First time
It seems I always score some events between the time I wake up and the time I turn the machine off. Perhaps I could record a lower AHI by quickly turning the machine off anytime I awaken. Assuming I can find the machine quickly.
 Hmmm...
