AHI Questions
I was diagnosed with OSA in 2012, used my machine for 6 months or so and lost some weight and when the mask started leaking into my eye, I slept a few nights without it and was fine and never used it again. Fast forward, I've been really tired lately and got some new mask parts and decided to use my machine again.
Just read on here about the SleepyHead software and downloaded my data from last night.
My sleep study AHI was 22 and last night was 10. My wife said I rolled around a lot more and kicked her a few times but my snoring was almost complete gone (I had been banished to the couch for a few nights recently due to the snoring being so bad). I remember waking up more often and adjusting my mask but today I already feel less tired.
Does AHI improve with consistent usage of the CPAP therapy or is this about the best I can expect?
My AHI was broken into CA 6, OA 2 and HA 2. I was reading that the CAs may indicate the brain is not attempting to breath, should I be concerned with this number? I also don't remember what my breakdown of the AHI was from the sleep study.
