Had to take my loaner CPAP machine back to DR since my apnea hits were not high enough for insurance to cover?
They want to run more tests but I have been with out that machine for days now, and I can tell a difference. I am so tired.
What can I do until I get a CPAP to sleep with, that I won’t be so tired?
I do not have obstructive but central sleep apnea.
I can really tell a difference in my energy when I use the CPAP. I contacted the DR but ehy want me to wait until I have taken more tests.

Centrals are caused because some people’s bodies can’t stand air blowing in their faces, what you really need is a VPAP (that’s V) it was developed in Europe & now is available here in the States now, it’s very expensive, hope you have Good Insurance, ( & don’t rent it, you’ll need it for a lifetime) but have your DR to order a VPAP test
sometimes this is seen (Centrals) in cardiac pts,
1 out of 2 / 50% of heart disease pts have Sleep Apnea
Go to a medical supply store and see if you can rent one until all testing has been completed.
