You would get more help if you post an Oscar chart. Lots of us don't read sleephq.

How do you feel though? That's more important once you're under 1 AHI.

Some of those flow spikes will always be there. They're sighs and a completely normal part of breathing.

You could make small increases to minimum pressure to try to reduce those flow limits.

Thank you, Deborah. I actually had a post concerning that, but I split off on it when I started speaking to my apnea challenges. It is in the software section, referring to as "needing a path to send Data from the sd card." It wants me to choose a folder, which I can't or Browse, which doesn't help either. I tried a couple of suggestions, that didn't work. I would prefer Oscar, as I've used it before, when it first came out. It is what it is. The two are not oceans apart in function.
