Re: Aaaaand again: newbie struggles topic
Hi all. I still feel like crap every new day. I think I might open my mouth during the night and often I wake up with mask not placed well and leaking. Any ideas how to make it work

You might want to try another mask. The F20 airfit is very popular as is the dreamwear mask. The p10 airfit does have silicone seal that basically inflates when the mask is pressurised. I have higher pressure than you and I do not have leak problems sleeping on either side or back.

I find I have to up my FFM results bu 1.6 Cm H2o to get similar results to a nasal mask or pillows. Many here have noted similar results.nova4e wrote: ↑Sun Apr 22, 2018 12:57 amHi I have been diagnosed July 2017 but have been on therapy on and off since Feb 2018. And I can't understand what's wrong. I have tried 2 masks - first
ComfortGel Blue Full Face and then DreamWear Nasal. I didn't have software until some days ago. I only new therapy is not working. I tried again last night the full face and statistics don't look good to me also.
Please help me figure out what is the problem. I am a side sleeper and masks are really bothering me, I fall asleep hard, wake up too often, go to WC often but still not sure whether while I am asleep, CPAP therapy is working. It is really overwhelming.
Let me know if I should snip other info from statistics.
Thank you all in advance!

I have a full face but my nose gets very sore from even 1 night with it.

Do you know what does this mean?

It sure looks like things are going well... or did you have a specific feature in mind when you asked?

Looking good

An AHI of 3.4 means that you're having an event every eighteen minutes (on average). While not ideal, the guidelines are that if you baseline AHI is less than 5, they won't diagnose Sleep Apnea (expect perhaps if there's some other indicator).
Your pressure is all over the place. I suggest that the min be no lower than 7. Also, I suggest disabling this ramp for now.
