Significant improvement with use of soft cervical collar

Post by Jason S. » Wed Jun 12, 2019 2:25 pm

Thank you Jas_williams for your suggestion about the cervical collar.

only one night of data but BIG improvement with the cervical collar - so far. Lowest night of AHI since I started in January and first night under 5.0. had some major leaking last night but know I can correct that. Still have a ways to go but optimistic.
