Hello,
I have been diagnosed with sleep apnea for over 7 years now. I had never been able to say that cpap was helping me feel better , hence did not use it much.
My first study showed a 8.0 AHI without titration , lately I had been more tired than usual and dediced to do a second study , I have put some weight since then and my AHI got to 20+ . It was an split study , after two hours , they put me in a CPAP , not working , after that they tried a BIPAP and my AHI was 0.0 . I was very optimistic since I thought all this time I needed BIPAP and now I had a prescription for it.
They put me in AUTO BIPAP with with max IPAP 20 , Min IPAP 7 with a PS 5 . First days where Ok , did not feel too much o of a difference ( 2-4 AHI) but last week my AHI went to 48.20!! , with 45 being from CA.
Kind of desperate since I am always tired , hope you could help me out. I am also attaching my sleepstudy if you wanted to take a look.
