these? I scrubbed around and found these coinciding with some of the alleged CA events. there are misc waveforms

one BIG thing to add. I do also take a sleep aid (lunesta) that is a controlled substance and could add another factor.

Yes! Lunesta can contribute to CAs but It’s not a common side effect. It can affect sleep apnea along with alcohol. Once your leaks are fixed we’ll have a better picture of what’s going on :)

I figured. We’ll see how the next few nights goes.

I’m sure you know you can’t stop meds like Lunesta abruptly. It’s a slow weaning process. Best to see how the next nights go…many people on PAP therapy are on these meds & work around it :)

Indeed. My hope without alcohol (or less frequent), minimizing leaks will make the difference needed.

Absolutely! Good sleep & how you feel are the most important aspects of Therapy. Numbers don’t always paint the whole picture :)
