Re: ResMed Attacks Internet Suppliers

I'm not absolutely, positively sure the others WILL follow along this time. Den You may be right Den, and I think the determining factor will be how successful the Resmed "campaign" is in the end. If it's an overwhelming success, I think the others will get on board post haste. If it's negative or ...

Re: ResMed Attacks Internet Suppliers

Hosehead is right -- where is it that Resmed is the responsible entity to enforce the Rx requirement??? I don't even think that it's FDA's responsibility. The FDA sets the rules - they have more to do than try to enforce them (they must, it takes them forever to do anything in the name of saving us ...

Re: ResMed Attacks Internet Suppliers

It's laughable when the xPAP manufacturers suggest that they are looking out for the patient's best interest by directing customers to brick-and-mortar DME's where they can "get the personal level of care that they need" . Oh really??? I wonder when this "personal level of care" is going to start. ...

Re: How many folks do you know on cpap outside this board?

I've found lots of users, and have actually convinced a few to get a study. I also know many that should be and/or should be tested. One of my successes was a brother in law who went through 2 years of drugs, therapies etc. for a condition that didn't seem to call for xPAP, but after one of my "Lect...

Re: cruise challenge

Been on a few cruises -- none with xPAP, however there has never been a power issue. I would bring along a surge protector and carry it on myself, but other than that I wouldn't expect any problems -- Holland America, IMHO, is the Rolls Royce of cruise lines, so all I can add -- Have a great time!!!...

Re: Is there an administrator for this forum??

Well said Dave - you're absolutely right.... From what I've seen here flames are met with "anti-flames". There have been some, shall we say, rather testy interactions between some members and others. But for the most part as was said earlier, we're all adults here (well mostly ), and since it's real...

Re: Mirage Softgel vs Activia LT for seal

I've been using the Activa LT for about 4-5 months now and prior to that the Activa. One important point -- make sure the size is right!! In the LT I'm using the Large/Wide which is kind of counter intuitive because it's the "smallest" I've found. I was using the Medium and it was too big. So make s...

OMG!!! It appears that once again there are some here that need to get a life. .....Nothing else to do but whine??? If you don't like what someone says, rebut, but use facts not name calling, self-righteous innuendo, and total BS, short of that move on to another topic. Slinky...as usual, you are so...

Re: mouth breathing tape?strap? help?

Though I don't tape (don't mouth breathe), you all have presented an issue I've had for quite some time with tape and band-aids..... Why is it that the tape and band-aids available to the "commercial" market has such crappy glue. Put on a band-aid and take a shower or wash your hands and the glue le...

Re: OMG!!!! DME actually wants to read my card......

Just thinking out loud (maybe a brain fart???? ).....decided I really didn't need one, but you've gotten me to thinking...... I have a spare of darned near everything else. I suppose they do fail eventually...... Perhaps I'll ask for one with my next request....as long as they don't want the old one...
