Please help me figure this out, would appreciate it a ton

Background: Diagnosed with OSA through at home Watchpat. AHI: 26, RDI: 35. I did the sleep test because I typically wake up about every 2 hours give or take 30 minutes throughout the night. Doc suspected apnea.

I have been using the Airsense 11 for the last month. Got used to sleeping with it, no leaks, mouth taping with N30i. Can sleep about 6-8 hours with it, but I'm still waking up roughly the same amount of time, like it has not helped maintain sleep. I started to wonder if maybe I have UARS and decided to get my data and assess it via OSCAR. The Flow limitation however appears pretty low(just based on my first night of data collection), which I think is a good sign.

The flow rate, well this is beyond my wheelhouse. Sometimes it looks crazy before a wakeup or a detected apnea or a CA, and the rest I have no idea if it's normal or not. I need help from someone capable to interpret these graphs and what they mean.

The tidal volume looks pretty jagged at some points and steady at others. And the others graphs like inspiratory/exp time is beyond me.

I lack the knowledge/experience to assess all these graphs and whether my breathing is disordered. I would love feedback on what's going on, possible reasons why I'm waking up every couple of hours. Potential solutions, adjustments to the cpap settings. I've read to try more pressure, turn off EPR, etc.

Genuinely thank you for your input, let me know if you need any other details to assess this more in-depth.

***Update with no ERP from last night

Better sleep maintenance but more teeth clenching and then groggy upon wake up https://sleephq.com/public/f0038a32-1cbd-45a4-b608-a258b7016ccf

So we've all seen peptides explode recently and just seeing all these people who seem to care about health getting on full stacks of Chinese research chems is wild to me.

You got people trying to lose weight so they get on reta, but then add 5 other peptides....because they saw them on social media as well? Almost as if they have no clue what reta itself is, or why you would keep adding

For many of these people it just seems like they are following a literal fad. Health consumerism. Many of these people don't even think they are using drugs. To them it's some kind of "natural" optimization

But the absolute worse is when I see young people making stacks of investigational drugs, some of which have only been used in mice. No one in the world knows how they interact with another, and their conception of what they're doing is healthy

So simultaneously you have fewer people using recreational drugs but WAY more people using "wellness" drugs.

I wager in 20 years you'll see the aftermath with many people having weird illnesses and it'll take researchers to connect the dots to specific chems from now

What's the most unhinged wellness shit you've seen recently?
