Flow Limitations are considered more or less the start of apneas. So, you typically need a bit MORE pressure to fight them.

I'd turn off Ramp, and maybe try setting EPR = 2 (or even Off) and see what happens. If you don't want to turn off Ramp, set the start pressure to at least 9.

OK, this is a kind of out there suggestion, might be expensive, and will come with its own issues, but since this seems to be an on-going problem might well be worth it. Is there an alcove of some kind in which you could place your bed, so that you would have walls on BOTH sides of the bed? You wou...

I’ve been having large leaks the past several days. It’s usually for about an hour, and the rest of the night is normal. (Sleepyhead data). I audio recorded my sleep last night, and during that period, the machine sounded very noisy, and I wasn’t snoring, and sounded like I was still breathing norm...

When is the last time you cleaned your mask and hose? White vinegar and water works well.

So I have been using a Dreamware for about two years now. However, I have to use it with a chin strap or else I have mouth breathing problems and wake up with ultra dry mouth. I still get that some even with the strap. I have been sticking with it because my AHI is about 1.0 and I don't have any al...

Wouldn't it be much easier to just place your mattress directly on the floor? That way you can't fall far...

I used to have a mattress directly on the floor like that for years, and it worked fine for me, though for back support reasons in my case.

Yep, do a search on Amazon for an "Adult Pacifier"...

That seems like a rabbit hole where you can find all kinds of um "appliances" that would do the job.

It's totally serious.

Best mask for stomach sleepers?Quote Cathyann This is not about a mask, but it does describe a great way to stomach sleep while wearing a CPAP mask - http://www.uarsrelief.com/sleeppositions.html That's a position that I've used for years, except I do it facing the opposite way due to spinal issues...

This board is awesome, and I hope to find some help or guidance with my own situation. I’m dragging all day until 10pm when I start feeling alive. Because of that, I don’t even bother going to sleep until 1:30, then having to wake up at 8. Thanks for any help!! A lot of this appears to me to be sle...

It's a straight 10cm.

Then your bucket must be deeper than that, or it's going to all bubble out.

Watch some of these videos for suggestions.

Did YOU check those videos? They aren't what you seem to think...

Do a search on Youtube for the "Epley Maneuver" and try it. Perhaps it's just an inner ear issue with the high pressure.

I encourage you to post some Sleepyhead charts, so they can be looked at.

Thanks for the info on the respironics numbers, I will adjust SH for that I think. I’m less worried about the numbers than the fact that the leaks, however small, seem to be waking me up. Are you really using the Amara FFM mask? If so, and you are sure leaks are causing waking issues, try a mask li...
