Re: AHI increase when taking Omega 3

It's been a while since I posted this. I think the cause was that I was taking them before bed and this was causing acid reflux. When I eat too late at night my Ahi always seems worse the next day as well. After looking at my reports, these nights showed up as central apneas. My sleep studies never ...

My cpap pressure can range from 5-15. The night that I got the vertigo it spiked up to 15 (I am usually around 10-11 for 90%). I h...

AHI increase when taking Omega 3

About a year ago I was taking a couple of Omega-3 pills to try to help with some arthritis in my hands and shoulders(getting a lot of aches and pains all over-probably due to apnea). After taking these for 2 weeks, pain was going away. However, I started having these episodes at night (later figured...
