RE: UARS - mper6794 - 11-03-2019
...remember now, I have missed: what are your other settings, please?
Timin:...Timax....Cycle:....Trigger.... tube temperature (if any) humidity..
And, also, as I mentioned earlier, if I were me, I would not use IPAPmx > EPAPmin+PS. For us, UARS people, arsing/awakening too much, it appears this does not pay off. It was a relief for me when a equate those.
For instance, in your charts, we may see those autobumps pressures at 23;37....5:10.... 5;35 were unecessary; you were awake.
good luck

How are you telling when I'm awake?
These are just the pre-sets
Timin:2
Timax:0.3
Cycle:med
Trigger:med

Timin:2....I suppose this would be exchanged?
Timax:0.3....idem?
Cycle:med

If it were just a stuffy nose, why would I have hours where everything looks fine and then hours where there's so many problems? It's almost the EXACT SAME pattern, night after night. I even included a chart from back in June.
Doesn't this look like collapse with deeper sleep cycles? What can I do if this indeed is happening?
yes, for instance: oct3th....let us start counting time at 20:40 +90 min (22:10), your chart indicate REM, parallel with increasing in flagged FL...then, 22:10+90 minutes (23:40), your chart indicate REM, parallel with increasing in flagged FL....then, 23:40+90 minutes (1;10/1:20), your chart indicate REM, parallel with increasing in flagged FL......How do your feel this night?
Could you please plot ten-minutes of this oct3th, adding median reference line for RR and amplified scale max 20, as well as the chart leak? I think, we should further explore this….
good luck

Good luck
....and, maybe, start thinking on sew a tennis ball back on your pijama, to not sleep on your backs...i use that!...i am aware you would to have to balance this with worse stuffy nose on side and stomach positions.
Good luck

I do not have a record of how I was feeling October 3.
I couldn't take the mask last night, pressure bothering me, just couldn't deal with it, and I slept without it (pretty well actually) last night.
RE: UARS - mper6794 - 11-04-2019
Hi, tarah
_comparing your oct3th(APAP) charts and and latest one(BPAP) there was a clear improvement in REM quality (less FL and less variability in RR), as would be expected.
_These difficulties while increasing pressure looks always a problem at first. I faced It many times and had sucess with leakings in my airfit f20, tighter It up at every step.
_great and interesting news on sleep nicely whithout the machine. Difficult, of course, but It would be great to know what would have been positions this night, as well as stuffy nose behavior.
_as i mentioned earlier, above, luckily you eventually end up not needing PAP at all, after handling properly stuffy nose and maybe sleep positions (Thanks Prana!).

Back from surgery! Feels like someone punched me in the nose, but all in all it went well. And I can breathe through my nose!
RE: UARS - Gideon - 11-13-2019
That sounds GREAT
