Re: still tired after 1 week
15 years of use here and I can say that there are times when I go through what feels like the "old days" My diagnosis was for severe OSA and moderate CSA with some 200+ events a night and so really not getting good rest. I think my body was just adapted to it. I took right to cpap however and the ge...

Re: Anyone know what is the meaning of SLA?
In the IT industry it refers to "Service level agreement" or in other words, if I lease a machine from you, you promise me it will operate at a given level (usually in %) or I have recourse for refund or other default compensation.. So, if I rent a computer from you, and you promise 100% uptime, if ...

Re: Does it say STUPID on my forehead???
Thanks Sherrif.. My reply was probably more properly directed towards your care provider and not your DME (I deal with an onslaught of these fwiw, they ALL want your biz)... On the upside.. the earlier statement about the "contract is clear" usually takes some clarification to the egghead behind the...

Re: Does it say STUPID on my forehead???

(not that Medicare is an Nightmare for most offices to keep track of, their rules and regs are a quagmire of redundancy and idiocy) Too often we get patients in that "know better" than the Dr or clinicians..
