Central sleep apnea problems?

October 18th, 2012

Lately I been having problems falling asleep right before infall asleep its like I forget to breath and it keeps happening to the point I pull an all nighter cause im too scared to fall asleep and get anxiety really bad. It happens every once and a while in a couple of nights in a row so I don’t get much sleep I feel like crap the next day. I really want sleep so bad. I did see the doctor the other day for my high blood pressure they checked my heart they said its healthy they checked my lungs its also healthy I took a blood and urine test and liver kidneys electrolytes are normal idk what’s causing it. I do have anxiety about my health and I do have post nasal drip at the moment but idk if that’s the cause. Im 19 and I am probably I little over weight and I do need to change my diet could that be the cause?

These are called sleep onset centrals; and are very normal. These occur when the brain is switching from conscious breathing to unconscious breathing. Think of it as a switching process. I see these all the time during the sleep studies I perform.
