I am no expert at all, but I think a knowledgeable doc would prefer the lower setting be much lower than the 12.

Mine was original 8/14 and it showed that is was often at 14, so I suggested ot be at 8/16.
I think this is better for me.

I hope one day that Sandman will consider allowing pressure issues be discussed, particularly in respect to APAP.
The range allows different pressures to be auto determined by the machine.
So many people complain about the total non response from their docs.
We are more responsible than that and deserve better.
