That is awesome. I had to take my machine into the sleep doctor's office every 2-4 weeks so he could hook into it and DL the data.

That way he could see if I was actually using it. Apparently it can tell if it is just on, or actually receiving back-pressure.

Yeah, it's monitored Big Brother style. But it is very helpful.

Last night was not great. Heated hose was a definite plus. However I had 32 incidents per hour. sigh
The machine says I am not getting a good seal with the mask. I want to avoid shaving of my goatee, but I may not have a choice.
I have an appointment tomorrow at 3:30 to see if they can help me get a better seal, or if another style of mask is possible.

Shaved off the mustache, still failed the seal test. I have this feeling if I go all in and shave it all off, it will fail anyway.

33.9 incidents per hour last night. sigh
At least I have an appointment today to review things. I may need a different style of mask.

Well, the nasal only mask did not work for me. Beard had to go. The full face mask passed with flying colors. Look like I am going clean shaven from here on. At least I have a crap ton of razor blades from Dollar Shave Club.
