Uars/need help please

[Jlcdsc]

I have UARS ,a titration study said to do 8 EPR3 but they don't test correctly or completely understand UARS. I have no AHI really , lots of arsouals and rid also plmd movement . I have been doing horrible on cpap , I tried upping my pressure, vcom, lowering EPR. I still can't figure out hoe to sleep through the night .I m in a full face hybrid because if I tape my breathing is worse , and my nose clogs a lot, bad LPR and Gerd , some kind of pain on right side of throat when I yawn ? I think I have soft platte issues especially on exhale . My stupid doctors think I should be fine Im not , some nights if i clog up I don't sleep at all, others I wake up a ton in REM esp.

hey Jlsdsc,

many UARS patients will need a much higher pressure than the "optimally titrated" one they get from a lab, because many labs don't treat for SDB events but instead more narrowly for AHI or RDI. This poses a problem for patients who's events are generally more subtle, which could be the case for you.

There is also a chance that CPAP may be limited in what it can resolve for you, but that's not something we can know given what information you have shared so far, and so it's a bridge that can be crossed when needed, should you arrive at it.
 
You still have flow limitation, and your flowrate does sort of look like palatal prolapse, but it's not very clear given the resolution you shared.
