a user sent me this, and I wanted to open it up for the full group's comments and suggestions:

"When you have a second I have some questions for you. Here are my numbers for that last few days:
May 28:
Pressure 8.0
Leak .00 L/S
AHI 2.5
AI 0.1
HI 2.4

May 29:
Pressure: 8.0
Leak .00 L/S
AHI 3.3
AI 0.4
HI 2.9

May 30:
Pressure 8
Leak .00 L/S
AHI 3.0
AI 0.0
HI 3.0

May 31:
Pressure 8
Leek 0.00 L/S
AHI 2.8
AI 0.0
HI 2.8

My questions are as follows:

I have my ResMed S 8 Autoset II set on Auto. The doc set the numbers at 6 low and 8 high. Even though my number from the sleep study (split study) was 11 and my first machine, Escape, was set at an 11.

It seems to me that I should have my machine set to 6 low and 13 high. Right? Then we could really see if 8 is the average number. Can I change this myself? I have a clinicians manual.

I have been waking up at roughly the same time each night. I go to bed at 9:00- 9:30 and I wake up at 12:30 and then again at 3:30. Could the autoset be waking me?

My machine keeps running on the Warming mode. I can't seem to turn it off without unplugging the machine. Any thoughts?"

I agree with Jeff these numbers are a great start. Your AHI is under 5 and you have not been on the machine for 2 weeks right? Your compliant, you able to handle the pressure. Sleep will come give it time.
