Target AHI

Hi, so on night one of apap, my ahi was 5.1 (down from 23, so i'll take it, plus I didn't have any issues with ripping off my mask or what not). My initial doc settings for pressure were 5 to a ceiling of 9. I've read mixed reviews about adjusting my resmed on my own, but I messed with it a bit.

I tried setting the floor from 6-10 last night. Ahi dropped to 3 or so. I may do 7-11 tonight, but i'm kind of just feeling it out. I feel like the thing that really matters the most is actually the floor number, rather than the ceiling.

Should I really be aiming to try and hit an AHI of 0-1? or am I good where i'm at.

FWIW, I consider myself lucky because once the machine is on, I am really comfortable breathing in it and wearing the mask.
