How long have you been having such a high number of Central Apneas/CA?

Have you notified your doctor about the number of centrals?

Do you take any medications? Especially any pain med????

Some people do better with a fixed pressure....I suggest change to fixed CPAP mode to a pressure of 8 to start with or you can accomplish the same thing in auto mode by setting the minimum to 8 and the maximum to 8.
