It should show how many times it keeps your breathing from stopping.

I think they are called sleep interruption events.

So there would be the crucial information.

If you have an app that interfaces with your phone, you could pull that info up, chart it in Excel, send it to your Doctor and tell him, I think they want information like this to go with the RX. Can you see if they will accept it so I can get a new one before this one dies?

Ask if your physician uses an EyeChart. If they do, you can probably get ALL that info through that Ferrets are Cool Aug 2022 #7
