Desperate for even a little sleep (Resperonics S/T-D30

Post by Sprockets_Zomie » Tue Sep 19, 2017 7:21 pm

Greetings, Fellow suffering peeps.

I am having a big problem, I have a bipap that I currently have set at 16IPAP / 10 EPAP / 12BPM / 1.5 TI and I am getting a TON of hypopneas. Last night I had a 16 for AHI, this is the pressure they sent me home with over a year ago. Unfortunately, due to family issues, I have not had any vacation or sick leave to be able to go back down to SLC and get another sleep study.

Does anyone have any idea on what might help, does 12 breaths per minute sound right? My sleep apnea is supposedly mainly centrally caused probably due to powerful narcotics they have me on. I am reducing my dose on those but in the meantime, I am having a hard time staying awake at work even with Adderall
