With your min pressure set to 6, your data looks good. Give it some time (a few weeks) to see if you feel better.

If it were me, I would work to get my AHI lower and then you can decide if the lower AHI correlates with feeling better.

Another bad night... what setting do I need to change? Nights seem to start out okay but then go downhill when I get deeper into sleep. http://i.imgur.com/LPHNRCfl.png You need to raise your minimum pressure (it is currently set to 11). If you don't know how to access the Provider Mode, see https:/...

I am fitting at the lower pressures.... I'm upping the lower pressure and going to tighten the mask.

Thanks again.

Don't just tighten the mask. As Pugsy said, fit the mask while near your highest pressure so you know the seal is good.

It is easy to see why you feel poorly.
As gwc says, you need to increase your minimum pressure. Start with 6 and then reevaluate after a few days.

If your machine is data capable, use sleepyhead to look at what was going on during the dream.
Your AHI of 3.2 may be fine or maybe lousy. If they are happening in clusters during REM then your treatment may be inadequate.

Welcome to the forum. If you want to have less events due to obstruction, you need higher pressure. Do you see how the machine raises pressure when these events occur? If your pressure was already higher, those events may not happen. Increasing the lower pressure limit should help. You also have a n...

I am not sure if I understand your question. The majority of events shown are hypopneas which means that you need higher pressure. The UA means that the machine was unable to determine if the apnea was due to obstruction or not.

Usually it is because the mask is foreign.
Other times it is because the pressure is too low so you feel like you are not getting enough air. Other times it is because treatment is inadequate and you are having too many events. Looking at your breathing data should help you determine the reason.

Does anyone know if Sleepyhead software doesn't recognize events during ramp time, or is it possible the Res Med doesn't record events during ramp time? Sleepyhead just reports what the machine flags... SH doesn't recognize or interpret anything like that... unless you turn on the user defined flag...

If worrying solved problems, there would be no more problems.

I don't know what you mean by "purge". Don't delete any data. See the three posts below for help.
