Hello Lorraine @leefuller1, Welcome to Connect. I'm sorry you have to wait so long before your video appointment in June. I thought I would tag @cyrusmanz in case they did not see your post. Hopefully they can share what triggers their CSA if they know.
I have obstructive sleep apnea and was diagnosed about 3 or 4 years ago. It took me a year or so to get used to my CPAP. From what I've read there are different treatments for CSA. The Sleep Foundation has some good information on CSA here - https://www.sleepfoundation.org/sleep-apnea/central-sleep-apnea.

Have you been diagnosed with any other heart related conditions?

Hello thanks for responding even though yours is osa. I’m glad you’re doing well with ur treatments.. as for my heart I have a low heart rate but not low enough @thus time for the pacemaker which my cardiologist has spoken about. I have lung issues I’ve had cancer 3 xs radiation chemo 2 xs and I’ve had my right upper lobe removed and the middle lobe is in bad shape from radiation.. lots of medical issues. Also sarcoidosis in my lungs but not active @ this time.. always something but God has allowed me to stay here on earth and I’m very grateful.. I love life😊😊.. thanks again for reaching out .. it’s 12 pm here I’m doing a breathing test tonight to see if the oxygen is helping me @ night while I try to sleep. I’m not sleeping well but the oxygen does help keep my oxygen up around 💯 - 95 best it’s been. Without it I’ve gone down to 88 and stop breathing way too many time throughout the night. Again. Thanks.
Good night. Lorraine
