I did try the automatic mode on the CPap - it was better but still awful - I guess less awful? I am currently using the automatic setting on my BiPap as the titration settings and the adjusted settings (when the titration settings failed) were both bad. Technician said that is all they can do with setting adjustments. Are the automatic settings on BiPap different from an APap machine?

I wish I knew the answer to that.
I do remember that there was a minimum exhale and a maximum inhale setting, plus a pressure support setting that allowed both to slide if needed.
I don’t know what to tell you except to start watching YouTube and learn as much as you can on your own. I like Nick the Aussie’s stuff.
My experience is that all technicians and sleep doctors are not created equal.
Also maybe visit an ENT and see if nasal or throat surgery could help you.
