suffering from both central and obstructive

Post by apnea2142 » Mon Apr 09, 2012 7:41 am

Hi! I have been suffering for years from both central and obstructive apneas and the cpap and medications don't work that well for me. I can't remember places or words or think that quickly anymore and am so exhausted. Please help!

Please fill in your profile so that we can see your equipment- that will help us advise you. It sounds like a visit to the doctor and perhaps a titration in the sleep lab is in order. You are obviously not benefitting from your CPAP, and if you're having significant central apneas increasing your pressure may make them worse. Good luck and please keep us posted.
