If Centrals are present or being induced, wouldn't bleeding in O2 be counter-productive?

Thank you for this. It may not be anything but I think that this is the best avenue to take right now. Always best to be extra cautious till we know for sure what is or is not going on.

last night left the settings the same, auto pressure set to 7-12, tossed and turned until 3 AM, looked at AHI and it was 6.9, went back to sleep and crashed, next thing I knew it was 6 AM and now the AHI was 3.9 so last 3 hours must have been really good to bring the average down that far. Wont have access to detailed data until Sunday when I get back home. I do feel better today though.
