Is this really a long apnea

The first apnea is 103 seconds then an 80 second followed by a 92 second.

Is this accurate as I see the pressure is spotty during that time frame abnd so are other stats

dilbert, I can't really tell what's happening on your graft. There are longer apneas, but yes, those are pretty long. Doesn't look like you're having that many of them though.
I have seen people post on the group with much longer apneas though.

it was the only 3 I had of the night but previous ones were all 35 secs or less 103 secs seems scary long.

It is scary long.

It looks more like your machine was off and on. It's hard to see clearly but are those areas blank? If you zoom into 5 minutes you should be able to see if there is anything there.

That is some weird flow data. It's intermittently flat for almost 2 hours from 11pm to almost 1am.
What's the deal with that? I don't know anyone personally who is able to not breathe for a nearly-consecutive duration of almost two hours. I'd almost suggest machine data failure. Either that or your turned off your machine for long periods and held your breath during some of the very short periods between 11pm and 1pm when it was on.

The questions that come to mind -- without trying to be flippant -- are the following:
Are you 'sleep-turning-off-and-on' your machine?
Are you a meditation master with the ability to go into a deep trance that dramatically reduces your metabolism?

And perhaps a bit flippant:
Alien abduction?

I'm at a loss for understanding. I hope some of the longer-time forum members will have suggestions.
You wouldn't happen to have any oximetry for the same time period, would you?

What does the leak line look like? I'm wondering if you had smartstart on if you could sleep through a big enough leak to turn it off? Or if you took it off in your sleep and kept trying to put it back on... Or DD is right, machine failure.

I agree, Lizistired - a good look at the leak line would make an excellent reference for what's really going on.
