Yesterday got CSR (Cheyne Strokes)on my report. Should I be worried?

Yesterday got CSR (Cheyne Strokes)on my report. Should I be worried?
Yesterday I slept without my two pillows on my back and basically flat. Normally I sleep on an angle. Today I woke up feeling more tired than usual so I checked my report and came to this. 

Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

This is a close up view of that section.

I'm not sure what algorithm ResMed uses to create the CSR areas, but it seems to be pretty all inclusive.

True CSR has a pronounced waxing and waning pattern at a fairly slow rate. What you have shown us barely qualifies as periodic breathing in my opinion. Further, it lasted less than 5% of the night, and if it only shows up occasionally, there is nothing to worry about.

Lacking your current settings (use F12 to create screenshots!) it is hard to give useful advice to minimise these occurrences..

How frequent do these occur. This one is not CSR which is what ResMed calls all periodic breathing, and is not an immediate concern.
