Easiest way to find out is to try it for a couple of weeks and see. You might be pleasantly surprised. Good Luck!

If so, then CPAP wouldn't help. You have to be trying to breath for CPAP to help by keeping open the passages. If the brain is failing to send a signal to breathe, then CPAP won't get air in. If your doc said you have central sleep apnea (and if I'm not wrong about it being neurological), and he wants you on CPAP, he might think you have *both* types of apnea. Certainly possible.
