i did this test because i tried everything to make me feel better but nothing works, also my friends claim that when i sleep at night i stop breathing and that it is followed by a gasp for air (i cant remember any of this tho).
The doctors claimed several times that even tho i have mild CSA, that it is not the cause of me feeling so sleepy 24/7 no matter what measurements i take. So i bought a Resmed Airsense 10 and gonna tweak it so it is useful for CSA as well, but i am starting to doubt if it is really worth the try.
any experts here who recognise some patterns and think that it indeed causes me to feel like this 24/7 and doesn't improve no matter what?
Actually breathing in a cycle of shallower and shallower breaths, followed by a cycle of deep and deeper breaths is classic central apnea events. A whole series of them is called Cheyne Stokes Respiration. Here is an example of what it looks like on an OSCAR graph. You can see the flow rate going in cycles. Same with the minute ventilation which is a measure of flow volume. If the flow stops at the minimum for more than 10 seconds it gets flagged as a CA event.
