I hadn't thought of that, great idea, I will give it a try, thanks!

When I first started CPAP I had EPR turned up to the highest setting (3) for comfort, but that caused lots of central events. I lowered it to 1 and that helped. Now I have turned it off completely and that seems to have helped even more.

Almost all of my apneas are central, and it is sort of managed by CPAP/APAP, but I still wake up a lot of days with AHI in the 20's. My plan is to try VAuto next, and if that does not work move on to BiLevel with a backup rate, and if that fails I will probably end up with ASV.

But the VAuto and BiLevel machines are very expensive and buying them just to test out my theory would be rather expensive. Better to test it with a jailbreak first and then be able to go fight for my best solution with the doctor and insurance.
AHI 20's on CPAP? I think that your doctor probably should do a sleep study in a sleep center and titrate settings during the study to try and fix that . . .

Yes you do need a prescription. Maybe some people here can help explain the process they went through and the clinic costs. Not sure if a sleep clinic is required as it was years ago.
I bought my this cpap machine during black Friday for $208 and the cpap store emailed me giving me 45 days to send them my prescription.

Just a general question, not sure if I will get burned for this. My memory has been gradually getting worse and my doctor thinks it's sleep apnea. I was prescribed a CPAP. Have any of you experienced memory issues due to sleep apnea and have seen improvement with successful use of the CPAP?
No burn here. Can't say for sure but being hypoxic can't help.

I did the same. Great deal. And I happen to have a really good doctor who gave me no trouble to send in the prescription without charge.

Neurologist with subspecialty certification in sleep med. 100% cognitive issues can be due to obstructive sleep apnea (among quite a few other things)

Thanks for your response! Does the treatment improve my memory or will it just stop from getting worse?

A lot of people get more central events when starting cpap and can go away after a few months but I doubt the EPR caused that as it's just a comfort setting.

What does it mean that your apneas are central?

Yes, when you sleep and stop breathing due to sleep apnea, it robs your brain of oxygen. It is what they call the slow killer. I almost died from sleep apnea because for years I did not know I had it. I knew I was tired all the time and I started to develop other medical problems, but no one ever tested my sleep to find out. I ended up with a blood clot that put me in the hospital for 2 months and I came extremely close to never waking up. The lung doctor they sent me to because of the clot, diagnosed me with sleep apnea and said that in the hospital I stopped breathing around 100 times a night and a couple times it was for almost a minute. He sent me to a sleep center for a sleep study. Doctor there told me over the years it had affected my liver, lungs, heart and brain.

Fast forward, that was over 12 years ago and I'm a new person now. I started using a Bipap, because I could not stand the Cpap and the constant airflow. I had a lot more energy, my organs bounced back, my memory and recall got better and I was able to focus easier. I had no idea what sleep apnea was and I didn't know I had it all that time. I wish I'd of known a lot sooner.

If your doctor really thinks it's because of sleep apnea, then get that machine asap. If you have trouble with it and feel like your drowning in air with the mask on, ask the doctor to try a Bipap instead. I was able to go down to the sleep center and try the Bipap and it was like night and day. The Cpap blows air constantly, but the Bipap stops pushing air into my face when I breathe out. I put that Bipap mask on and took about 5 breaths and looked at the doctor and told him this was the one, I want whatever this is, lol. Now I can't sleep even for a 20 minute nap without putting it on. My body is so used to the machine that when I put the mask on, I'm asleep in less than 5 minutes.

My wife has one and she uses the nose pillows, it's a type of mask that just covers her nose. I'd love to use that instead of a mask that covers all of my mouth and nose, but I tend to open my mouth at night when I sleep, so the doctor said the nose thing wouldn't work for me. If you keep your mouth closed when you sleep, you might just need the nose one and don't have to wear that huge fighter pilot mask like I do. I wish you luck, it will make you feel a LOT better!

Central apneas are when your brain doesn't tell your body to breathe.

Obstructive apneas are when your body is trying to breathe normally but your airway is obstructed/collapsed.

It's not necessarily true that EPR causes central event. You should see a real sleep doctor. Doing it by yourself causes harms more than benefits.
That's so true, it's sad but that person is going to end up having something really bad happen. Apnea almost killed me, I can't imagine anyone trying to self diagnose their Cpap or Bipap settings. Saying that you put it on this or that and you felt better is laughable. I had apnea for years and aside from being a bit tired some days, I felt fine. Until one day I got up to go to the bathroom and suddenly started to black out in our hallway. I made it into the guest bedroom, sat on the bed and screamed for my wife to call 911. I thought I was having a heart attack and my chest hurt real bad and my vision started going black. I woke up to the fire department doing CPR on me.

I was lucky the volunteer fire department in our little town was only a mile down the road and someone was on duty. They were certified in cpr and were able to bring me back and then get me to the hospital fast. I had no idea that I had sleep apnea and it had been slowly damaging my organs over several years. I don't mess around with my health anymore. The settings on my machine were set by a doctor who went to college for 4 years, then med school for 4 years, then 3 years of hands on residency under another doctor, then 3 years of fellowship under a team of doctors, before he was able to even practice on his own. So if you think your smarter than a sleep doctor that had 14 years of education and training, more power to you. I'm an expert in my job, but I admit, I don't have a clue about complex medical studies. I stick to what I know and I trust my doctor to do what he knows.

Should be able to switch supplies to match a different machine. Might have to wait up to 90 days depending upon what she last received and when. This comes with what is needed to start other than a mask.
Thanks. Will share this with her.
