I have missed a total of 2 nights since Feb. I thought I could go 1 night on both occasions. Was I ever WRONG!!!! I felt almost like I had the flu. I will never do that again if I can help it.

[quote="krousseau"]No they do not try to retreive the "camera" it is simply a tiny transmitter, "flash", and 24 hour or less power source. It is well sealed and a friend who had the test last year says it was the biggest vitamin she ever took-her insurance paid-for which she is eternally grateful.

Hello, Not that it helps you at all but yes, it can take a while. I think I waited a month before I got my results, equipment and mask. They say that the hang up is with the sleep lab reading and interpreting the results. I was told that the report is 800 pages. I am not sure how true this is but th...

I can see how all of this can come into play. I know that it takes time to get through all the red tape but here is the kicker....when I first went in to talk to them about switching providers they had the hybrid....two days later when I got all the insurance wrinkles ironed out...boom...no hybrid a...

I would absolutely invest in a FFM for the winter. Even the hybrid would be a good idea. Something that could compensate for the congestion, IMHO, would just make it that much easier for your body to be at its best to fight off the bug.

I am a firm believer in Respironics. I have been totally happy with both of the machines I have had.

I am so frustrated. I HAVE to go to a local DME for my equipment. I have been trying to get a hybrid mask for 3 weeks. The DME just keeps telling me that they are waiting for it to come in. I talked to someone again yesterday and they said "maybe they are behind on manufacturing because EVERYONE wan...

oops.. above post was mine

I would be thrilled if this was true. I am waiting for my hybrid to come in and have been hesitant. If the chub makes it seal then it should be no problem for me..LOL

We have a "collection" of pillows around our home--foam, down, polyfill, small/large, hard/soft, in betweens, small & lg cervical. The one I like best is a extra soft down pillow from Scandia Down that I can fold in half if I'm on my back, scrunch into shapes that don't hit my mask if I'm on my sid...

It seems to me that the hybrid seems to work better for people with a more rounded face vs. a long thin face. It seems the full cheeks make for a better fit???? If this is the case than I am a perfect candidate for the hybrid..LOL.

Yeah, I just checked the prescription and did not see it there. I will check on ebay and see what I can find. I hope I can get something. I waited long enough for this dang card to come in and now I am in limbo again!!! Thanks for all of you help. I will keep searching and see what I can find.

Redthunder, maybe. I will try that.. thanks

Thanks Jim, I know you would help if you could. I will pm you. Thanks

oops...that was me guested. First time though so I guess I can forgive my absentminded self.
