Re: Driving myself mad...
My ahi on my machine was 3 last night. Where do I even begin to go to fix this? Should I go get a second opinion.

Re: Driving myself mad...

Re: Driving myself mad...
I'm using the machine that is in my profile. Yes, I did get a clear diagnosis for central sleep apnea. Thank you for asking about it. It feels like a very long journey

Re: Driving myself mad...
The one that I have does treat centrals. I have tried doing everything you could imagine. I even tried putting a clip over the straps so it would pull my hair. I took that rivht off in my sleep and didn't even wake me up.

Driving myself mad...
So I'm struggling with parasomnia I'm taking my mask off though the night and only getting 4-5 hours each night. My AHI for my central sleep apnea was 65 so I don't want to sleep a second without it. Not to mention I don't feel like I can function when I only get 4 or 5 hours on it. The doctors are ...

AHI of 20 with CPAP
So I just started using my CPAP machine 15 days ago and my pressure is set to 12. This is the first time my ahi has been high usually it at 0 or at 0.5. Does this mean my pressure isn't high enough?

New with lots of questions
So I was recently diagnosed with severe obstuxtive sleep apnea. However it seems I may have been misdiagnosed my sleep technician as well as the sleep specialist seems to think so. They think I have central because I had 171 central episodes and only 9 obstructive episodes. The question that I have ...

Re: Sleep Study Results

Yea, i think she does own the sleep center. I actually got a phone call back and asked and she is going to look into it. She said she didn't u...

Re: Sleep Study Results
No, not that i know of. I mean i'm only 22... They really didn't explain any of this. I never even meet with a Dr. I was just told I stopped breathing 65 times an hour and you need a CPAP machine. They ordered it, the sleep technician showed me how to use it and that was it. Is it like that for ever...

Re: Sleep Study Results
That is exactly what i'm talking about. Do you guys understand why they would diagnose me with the obstructive? It doesn't seem to make sense to me, i'm not a Dr. but the sleep socialist didn't understand either. Is it worth getting them looked at by another sleep center? She said my pressure at 12 ...

Re: Sleep Study Results
It's on the very last picture that is sideways. The sleep technician is also the one that told me that if i were her she would call it central sleep apnea. The last page lists how many of each i had. On the column for central it says that i had 103 centrals while i only had 9 obstructive episodes. I...
