Re: mattress topper results

weary soul, I bought a select comfort sleep number mattress and really don't like it. You don't get that ahhh factor when you lie down and I bought a four inch foam mattress topper to put on it. It helps but I would buy a latex mattress next time.Try out the comfort aire before you buy it.

Re: Upper Back Pain

I think you are probably lying in a different position and not moving for a period of time. I know thats what happened to me when I first started with the cpap. Its better now.

I like clear, especially when my nose is stuffy. spice is a lovely scent and reminds me of thanksgiving dinner smells. I absolutely love deep, its a lime and licorice sme...

WELL, SINCE I AM A NURSE IN A HOSPITAL I WILL SAY DEFINETLY BRING YOUR OWN. MANY PEOPLE COME IN WITHOUT THEIR MACHINES AND HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THEIR PRESSURES ARE AND THE MD WON'T ORDER THE C-PAP WITHOUT A PRESSURE AND RESPIRATORY WON'T HOOK ONE UP WITHOUT HAVING A PRESCRIBED PRESSURE.

I use melatonin too and find it doesn't leave me groggy and with a hangover like benadryl. I also give it to my border collie for thunderstorm anxiety.

sleeping with a sleep mask

Has anyone tried to sleep with a sleep mask that covers your eyes and blocks out the light while also wearing a UMFF mask? My room is so bright even with room darkening blinds and the light wakes me up around five thirty or six every morning and i can't go back to sleep. Since I work evenings and do...
