Ok I think I worked it out. Just went into clinic section and switch flex off. But it also give me an option of flex adjustment in the adjacent box. I assume turning flex off will over ride that?
Will push through work today and give it a go tonight. We have a long weekend here so hope to have a few work free days to experiment.
Hello. Thankyou. A lot of info for a tired human! But I will definitely read through it and try to understand it in detail.
I misinterpreted the flex thing. I reduced it and changed to cflex+ ... How the hell do you turn off flex? I am using a Phillips dreamstation.
And I'll play with my leak line thing later when my brain is a bit clearer.
Thankyou!
Hello. Cheers for the response. Appreciate it.
Last night was a shocker sleep. My mask is definitely leaking unless I stay still, I'm going to get another couple to trial. So if I'm understanding correctly (bit of a newbie to Oscar), the mask leaks are disturbing my sleep which are causing me to wake. Hence me sleeping a long time the other night, but not feeling refreshed.
My AHI is pretty low, which is the only thing my doc seems to worry about. But that's not the main thing obviously. But since using a Full face mask for a week (Phillips dreamwear) my data is all going in the right direction. I think getting a mask that fits perfectly is the main thing, then I can start upping pressure and fine tuning. When I get up, I'll post last night's Oscar readout.
Again, thankyou!
Hello! Have posted last nights OSCAR reading. I spent last evening reading and doing some adjustments as i'm having some ear issues - not pain or popping, just feeling a bit a deaf. Just feeling like there's too much pressure on the exhale maybe? Not sure. So i left my pressure at 9, i might ramp that up to 10. I added back in the ramp and have changed to c-flex+
It was a pretty good sleep overall. I don't feel 100% , but assume after so many years of untreated apneoa - things are going to take time. Any advice or tips would be appreciated. Thanks!
Thankyou so much for replying. I will try turning the flex off first, then post results. Then tackle other issues. I'm in Australia, so I assume in a different timezone, but we'll work it out.
It's been so hot here, any form of sleep is hard at the moment. Thankyou!
Hello. Thanks for the months of info and browsing (i love reading everyones stories and tips n tricks!) .
So over the past year i have tried all sorts of things. Nose pillows, FF masks, mouth tape, chin strap. The usual. I have recently settled on a Phillps dreamwear full face mask. I think i'm on the right path - i just need some help deciphering OSCAR data. The leakage has always been an issue, so i have been dialling that in recently. Any help or tips would be appreciated.
