Re: Hitting Wife While Sleeping

I have been tentatively diagnosed with REM Behaviour Disorder. I haven't injured my spouse, but my active sleeping has interfered with her sleep. In addition to a lot of random movement, I have vocalizations and one instance of actually jumping out of bed to avoid someone who was approaching me in m...

Re: Very High CA/CSR - Very Low AHI

I have an Air Curve 10 ASV. I haven't updated my profile because I don't see it listed as one of the choices when I edit profile. Regarding Afib treatment. I am on baby Aspirin. So far my cardiologist believes this is enough given my age and lack of other risk factors. He also wants to see what happ...

Re: Very High CA/CSR - Very Low OSA

:D Update - after undergoing an echocardiagram, cardiac stress test, 24 hour holter test, home sleep study (w/o CPAP), hospital sleep study etc, etc. I have been approved for and provided with a Resmed Air Curve 10 which appears to be working really well for me. I have to say that I'm a little mysti...

Re: Very High CA/CSR - Very Low OA

Changed the title now that I know the difference between CAs, OAs and Hypopneas. Sleep Dr believes that I will need an ASIV but the insurance co's will need convincing. Have just had a standard at home sleep test to prove that I have OAs when not on CPAP. I woke up several times gasping for breath. ...

Re: Very High CA/CSR - Very Low AHI

Thanks for all of your input and suggestions. We finished the cardio work up yesterday. Echocardiogram, stress test and 24 hr holter monitor. A Fib is constant and characterized by minor variations in rhythm and absence of discernible 'p' wave - otherwise my heart is functioning well and healthy. Du...

Re: Very High CA/CSR - Very Low AHI

Thanks All
My internist recommends increasing electrolytes while exercising while waiting for physical in 2 wks when we will look into things with more info and in depth.

My nutritionist wife and DPT daughter both agree with this.

Re: Very High CA/CSR - Very Low AHI

Thanks - Very good point about Why I would have low sodium. By vigorous exercise, I mean very vigorous - Sunday was 35 miles of road biking in 2.5 hours with 3000 feet of climbing - and I perspired at least 3 pounds . HOWEVER- and to your point - I have 4 years of history and I do not see anything l...

Re: Very High CA/CSR - Very Low AHI

Pugsy Thanks so much for looking at the Zoomed in section. I'm definitely keeping the DR appt. In the mean time, my wife ( nutritionist and highly educated CPAP user herself) thinks this the CSRs result from Hyponatremia (low salt levels) induced by heavy exercise, with excess hydration. To test thi...

Very High CA/CSR - Very Low AHI

I am an apparently healthy male age 66 who has been using Resmed Airsense 10 for 4 years after being diagnosed with OSA. Up until April of this year I had very good results - AHI rates consistently below 1 - and no daytime drowsiness. Just looked at my stats and was surprised to see that my AHIs wer...
