Causes of Central Apnia?

Posted by Meren32 on March 01, 2007 at 20:15:09:

I was diagnosed with Severe Central apnia with Insomnia
I am going tomorrow for the mask, and the newest Sleep machine. which has only been here in this country for about 8 months or so.
I also have some other weird stuff going on with my Blood Pressure. I am Curious could I have a tumor or something that is in my brain. So far only had an MRI on my Stomach,
as the stuff with the blood pressure a protein or group of cells normally are around the kidney area. I personally think I have something in my head that is really messing with my sleep. The Central Apnia seemed to be worse since the last time I had a sleep study done a few years ago. I have had 2 in the last 4 months
