AHI under control but flow limitation issues - guzzle - 04-02-2024

Between research here and my sleep docs, I've got the machine at a good pressure setting (or so I think so, I feel like I'm getting enough air). However, I am still not feeling very rested throughout the day and some nights I sleep like crap with lots of tossing and turning. Any ideas based on my charts what else I can try?

Chart below is a very typical night for me. I appreciate any help I can get.

P.S. - if there is some kind of trick to get the Wellue O2 monitor to stop breaking up sleep sessions into 4+ files I'd love to know how to do that.

I suggest you raise your EPR (I think your machine calls it IPR) to 3.  That should help with the flow limitations.

Thanks, that seemed to have worked to bring the flow limitations down.
