Variable Breathing Central Apnea?
Hello.  I've been a compliant C/A-PAP user for 15 plus years and I still feel like it's not effective.  I've been to various pulmonologists/sleep specialist and they tell my that according to the numbers, the therapy is working.  I don't feel like it is as I am always tired and not motivated.  Can anyone of the experts on here take a look at my numbers and let me know what they think?  I'm concerned with the high variable breathing of 25%.  Could I have central apnea?  I recently had an EKG and my doctor said that looked good.  Any tips?

Thanks much from a longtime reader of this page.
