Is your pressure really set to 20 (fixed) or is it set wide open?

Set to Constant 6cm fixed. With 2 EPR

Will do, thanks

Does EPR have a tendency to provoke centrals or something?

[Julie]

No, but it can cause AHI to rise (a little, not a lot), so you generally need to find the right balance of comfort from EPR vs lowering AHI.

the different pressures between inhale and exhale can, with some people, increase tidal volume, and that can cause an larger blowoff of co2, which is what drives respiration.

with some people, that's enough to mildly increase central apneas, you simply don't feel the *NEED* to breath, so, you don't.

note, it's not a *problem* but since you're obsessing about small things, you might as well eliminate whatever you can.

actually, it can. see above.

Have you ever been on Jeopardy? It is nice to know someone out there has learned that kind of detail!

we were having this exact discussion recently on the irc chat... it's rare, but it has been seen to happen. I've seen it with a small number of people here.

and, no, I haven't...

Julie, You have been posting in this thread for almost nine hours, and all you have done is cause confusion and the need for someone to correct you. That's a typical day for you.

... getting paranoid in my old age!

And dementia. Do you have anyone to look after you as things get worse? Seriously.

congratulations, you've achieved "useless post" status in a tiny fraction of the time Julie put into it.

It's not useless if it prompts Julie to ask someone to regularly check in with her, and then makes an appointment with a doctor who does cognitive ability testing.

your post was offtopic, and inflamatory, and honestly, nobody thinks you give a damn about Julie... so don't try to pretend now.
