Thank you Captain,

Last night, just for the H**l of it I raised the pressure from 8 to 8.8 and wore the nasal mask.

I woke up this morning groggy, tired and had the driest throat that I have had since I started CPAP 21 days ago.

Yes, I set it back to 8 and I am calling my doctor tomorrow to see about the different machine and chin strap......

What I cannot understand is that in the 2nd sleep study with a nasal mask, I had a wonderful nights sleep...yet I cannot duplicate or come close to it at home without the wires, a better bed etc.

Strange

Regards

Elliot
