Thanks Michael,
you said:
Central apneas and periodic breathing are two different things.
What is the difference between the two? Is my Doc or I better off knowing one vs the other?
Thanks
Jerry

PM Question
When I try to send a PM it stays in my outbox, and doesn't get sent. I've looked for a "send" button, but can't find a way to send it. It just stays in my outbox.
Sorry for the stupid question, but am I missing something?
Thanks
Jerry

S9,central apneas and breathing rythm

The S9 only seems to give the AHI, and no central apneas on the display. Do I need to look at the results through the software to get central...

Try poligrip STRIPS. They peel off very easily.
