Re: I'm just sayin'

Some doctors are evil. Many DME's are evil. I am getting IMHO, much better therapy by keeping the DME out of the loop. That is why we all stick together here!

Re: I'm just sayin'

SmartCard vs. SD vs. USB cable: Keep in mind these machines are NOT designed for user-monitored data. Data are meant to be read by your DME/Sleep Doc staff and interpreted by your Sleep Doc. Thus any talk of making it more accessible to the end user is moot to the manufacturer. (USB cable from your...

Re: I'm just sayin'

i cant see them doing an SD card, then you could get any 5 dollar SD card and use, right now we are forced to buy their smart card. the lights dont bother me, but sooo many people complain about them, it needs addressed, why not have them turn off 10 seconds after the last button is pushed. a larger...

Re: Getting ready for my first night...

good luck i like the swift lt a lot, try during the day to wear it with your machine on and lie on your side so you can get used to it in different positions without it leaking. when i first started using cpap, the sleep lab had basically told me id have to sleep on my back from now on, after findin...

Re: DME: "We'll tell your MD you discontinued therapy."

ya know, youd think these idiots wouldnt screw with us, especially in the begining, being sleep deprived and all, thats usually when people are short tempered the most.
but then again, going to pick up equipment form a DME, they know your sleep deprived and i think they use that to screw most of us.

Re: DME: "We'll tell your MD you discontinued therapy."

"What about future supplies?" The rep replies, "All CPAP supplies require a prescription, so she cannot buy any supplies here, either." I felt like picking another argument, but I felt like getting out of there and being done with them even more, so I didn't. It's not like I was planning to continu...

Re: That Dental Device

Ok, my wife just bought one, and here's why: I was diagnosed with sleep apnea but the CPAP "titration" (spelling?) I underwent was a miserable joke. I was told I had to have a "full mask" CPAP appliance, so I went in for the overnight phase 2. The attendant hooked me up to this mask so tightly that...

Re: HELP-SOMEONE PLEASE ANSWER

How would it benefit them to insist you get a new prescription? Seems like it would make it LESS likely you would buy stuff from them. Not more. dr. bob refers all his patients to xyz DME, so xyz DME insists they all need a new presciption from dr. bob for supplies. They both get to screw you. and ...

Re: HELP-SOMEONE PLEASE ANSWER

im not familiar with your exact machine, but i do know there are a few that take a different hose, but most take the same. i believe you dont even need a prescription for the filters and such, just for the machine itself, and some will insist on one for the mask. sounds like you got either someone n...
