Does AHI and Pressure Rise with Age?

Post by beneyw » Fri Dec 17, 2010 9:27 am

Sounds like a weird question but I have seen steady readings of AHI of 2-3 and pressure around 7-8 for several years. No changes in weight, equipment or daily habits but obviously grown older; numbers have changed to an average AHI of 4.2 and pressure of 8.9.....I am not upset with numbers per se but wondered what could be causing the gradual increase.

Just curious...
