Dr. CG would not be proud of the current state of sleep medicine, with scoring RERAs declared "optional" in the AASM scoring manual

Can thunderclap headache cause OSA /CSA?

Costs a small fortune just to borrow Doctors cheap junky devices just to get a home sleep test

Can anyone comment on whether the Inspire implant can help with this?

Thanks for the informations, my sleeping issue starts in the lock down, since then till now on going, Abbey

This is caused by narrow palates narrow jaws and recessed jaws. All of which are caused by improper tongue posture from childhood into adulthood. CPAP is great for treating the symptoms but it is NOT a solution. The solution is expanding the palate and jaws and often MMA CCW jaw surgery that moves both jaws forward and rotates them counter clockwise

I have a severe sleep apnea . I am doing colonoscopy, they will use Anesthesia on me . My doctor never discussed this with me. I will ask to make sure they give me the right Anesthesia

So what was the good an bad news for the gentleman interviewed?

Love this ❤

How often will Medicare pay for another unit? I’m waiting over 2 years for my replacement unit and still no word on when I’m receiving my new unit. I don’t know if I should use my old unit.

Mike is the most patient man on earth

Why don’t the interpreters of the sleep studies look at all aspects of the study instead of just the AHI numbers? I’ve gone through the same issues. Clinicians saying “ oh your ahi is great.” But when I look at my numbers my central apneas were very high. Ugh!

The worst is waking at 2am and feeling tired but not being able to get back to sleep. I feel extremely depressed as my mind floods with feelings of despair about my life

I’m going through a living hell.

I started getting Central Sleep Apnea symptoms after few days from changing my sleeping mattress and Pelew to a firmer ones, I also started to take antidepressants "mirtazapine 15 mg" to help me fall asleep faster, If "(the devil's in the detail) phrase is correct then I'm sure that the cause in my case is due to these changes.

I think flu and respiratory issues causes central apnea . Also when you’re sick and also stress due to regular stress topics or stress induced by too much stimulations such as watching disturbing social networks vids before sleep and etc , so your mind is like blocking respiratory process. Can anyone confirm my perception?

I have this even awake..is there a cure or treatment..?

I was recently diagnosed with central and obstructive (mostly central) sleep apnea. I was exhausted every day but, it was the headaches that got me in to see my doctor. I was waking up multiple times a night with absolutely horrendous headaches! Did both a home and in-lab sleep study. Turns out I was having 107 episodes per hour and my lowest oxygen level during sleep lab study was 66. Apparently, it never got above 82. So now, I'm trying to get used to my ASV machine. It's been a month now. Last night and the night before were the first times I was able to sleep through the night with my mask. Oh man, does it feel good to actually sleep!! Turns out, I had severe central and obstructive apnea and was extremely hypoxic. Damn! Good thing I got checked out!! My "events" are now down to 3-8 per hour. It varies. But, far better than 107!! Mine also has oxygen added.

To suggest that someone would consider suicide because they have to much time on there hands during the night is just so damn insulting. Are you aware that for some people insomnia is a form of torture with no end in sight. This is why people consider suicide in the case of prolonged insomnia.

Thank You for sharing this.

Is it important to get A head CT scan to rule out a cause, especially if you don't have other heath issues.

I have complex sleep apnea. ASV works much better for me than CPAP or APAP. My AHI is much lower now, usually less than 2.5. I feel great, with no more daytime sleepiness.

Thank you all for sharing the information

You dont say what ASV stands for.

All thanks to DR EMOVON on here youtube channel were i reversed my Chronic Bv and Candida overgrowth when i used herbal medicine and a natural diet from him.. natural remedies is the best solution for vaginitis recommended for both teen and adults.. it has no side effects.. #dremovon.A couple friends also got help with Vaginal smell and yeast infection naturall.

I wonder what is the matter with the Doctor's sound. I can only understand every other word. It's the strangest thing. A person can't figure out the message when several words out of the sentence are muffled.

Can't understnd what the lady is saying. Her voice sounds muffled. I mean the older lady who speaks.

What they dont mention here is that its way worse on your back, i have severe sleep apnea while on my back but its non existent on my side, but im sure i have UARS because i cant breathe through my nose properly even after septoplasty and turbinate reduction.

Is there any concern when having dental procedures for person with mixed obstructive & central sleep apnea?

No one is going to like to hear this but vaccines can cause mini strokes. Most vaccinated people have asymmetrical faces for this reason. And/or a squinty eye. Me included. My central sleep apnea started at age 15 after I took a tetanus shot to travel abroad for a school trip. NO ONE is studying this. Bells Palsy and Ramsay Hunt Syndrome have been listed as possible vaccine side effects but that’s because it’s noticeable to the patient. Internal involuntary functions not working properly due to a mini stroke in the brain…are never even considered by doctors as a possible side effect of a vaccine’s components crossing the blood brain barrier. Any pharmaceutical that crosses into the brain could potentially cause a mini stroke.

My husband died in Oct 2021 From Multiple Myeloma , caused by that DREAMSTATION ASV

What if my cpap says 2-3 central per hour?

I’ve been using nasal pillows for years, but mouth leaking is a big problem to me, as my mouth naturally open during my sleep. So I started mouth taping, leaking gets better, AHI is low, but sleep is still fragmented, and I feel not rested.

My husband was diagnosed with sleep apnea. He suffered a heart attack in 2018, a cerebellar stroke in 2021, and a nighttime seizure in 2022. Has has been on CPAP for 2 months, but does not feel better. What do you recommend for my husband? Would BiPAP be better for him? Many thanks in advance for your help.

UARS eventually leads to OSA .dr kasey Li is a fantastic Dr especially with his use of EASE , however he lacks versatility in his treatment of UARS/Sleep apnea . This is because he doesn’t use DISE .DISE is very important , because it reveals and gives the Dr an idea of the cause of sleep apnea/UARS . DISE reveals the site of obstruction.

UARS eventually leads to OSA .

Since throat cancer damag from my PHILIPS. I DONT SNOR any more . Thanks philips

It's 05:38 in the morning I have been wide awake and i see all the bad things in my life.

I've been dealing with GERD since 1998, while serving in the Marines. My sleep was never the same.I've been taking PPIs ever since. Jan 22' I woke up with a sore throat ( normal), but I was hoarse and voice sound like gravel. I had a polyp removed from my vocal chord Jan 23'. June 23' I was diagnosed with OSA. I'm struggling with the CPAP now, but working with to dial in the settings. The Dr also is switching me from a full mask to a nasal. Your video is very informative.

I did mine at 50. Stanford Dr Schendel. Can't thank him enough.

My AHI was 7. Had 12 central apneas and 5 obstructive apneas in 7 hours sleep study and they didn’t prescribe be a bpap nor CPAP machine. Even though I have symptoms at that low number😢

We're going to solve it soon CG.

I am a Veteran. In 2009, VA sleep clinic diagmosed me with sleep apnea. In 2017, I needed replacement mask, etc. VA sleep docitr asked me to retake the test. I was also tested for narcolepsy. I told i have mild positional sleep apnea but told not to sleep on my back. I have shoulder surgeries and injuries thirty years ago. So, they denied me for CPAP mavine snd parts. I still had sleep issues. Fast forward, I had an urgent gallbladder removal surgery. Dyring that I had an hypercarbia event, on stroke watch, not able to awakened for some eight hours post op, had course tremors for two days and hospital observation for three days. They gave me asthma therapy every few hoyrs but never explained to me I had hypercarbia. I had to read it in my surgery report. Due to asthma breathing issues in prior surgeries, the anaesthesiogust said she ysed less than the minimum amount of anaesthesia. She gave me a letter to give any future surgeons. But VA never offered me my old CPAP therapy. Meanwhile the irher day, my partner has to watch me for stopped breathing. .

I had the Philips Respironics System One and signed up for the recall. After about 18 months, Philips sent me a replacement. They sent me the DreamStation One: Model number: UDSX500S11 w/a humidifier In those 18 months I decided to purchase the AirSense 11 and I think that machine is superior to anything else. Just wondering if anybody here has had a similar experience or if you have received a replacement yet?

Patients with sleep apnea coming for surgery is a very rare problem? A lot of people have sleep apnea and many of them need surgery to treat it.
