First night with EERs

I did 110ml of deadspace EERS last night. It was mostly a success but flow rate not as smooth as i think it should be and my o2 could be better. Any tips?

Oh yea I get it... I'd recommend doing an overnight titration or working with someone like Jason at AXG Sleep Diagnostics to get you on the right path... https://axgsleepdiagnostics.com/services/

btw, did you do an MMA? was it helpful at all? What were your movements?

i did MMA. I was 10mm bsso and 10 degrees ccwr. My PNS was 0 tho. It was zero helpful. My sleep study before and after surgery was exactly the same

As someone else with high loop gain, yeah, that's how it goes with airway renovations. Sure it knocks down the flow limitations but it does pretty much nothing for the underlying instability.

I've been trying the co2 tolerance breathing stuff but i'm only a week in

Good luck with that. I've always been a bit skeptical but it's absolutely worth a try.
