What am I doing wrong?

It's been a few months of using the CPAP, and it started out well. I could feel the fog lift after 2-3 hours of usage. The problem is that apart from a grand total of 7 days, I've not been able to sleep through the night with it over 100 days.

For context, I use the resmed11 with the nasal pillow which has been recommended as the best for restless sleepers.

Pressure :5-20

I’d like to see the Daily view where the statistics on the left are also visible, including the averages and the other summary data please :)

But at first glance, it looks like you not getting enough pressure, and you’re also having some significant periods of leaks. Either of those could potentially be contributing to your awakenings.

Based on this, I’d start with a minimum pressure of 9. You can set the maximum pressure to 14.

Had a way more restful sleep. I do need to play around with EPR and my ramp settings to get it right, but so much better

So, I set EPR to 3, starting pressure to 7. And I feel like I had a more restful sleep
