The sore throat is only related to absence of cpap. The feeding tube and sleep study were just examples of when you can't use your cpap. Just like a broken cpap, however I have 3 backups, so that isn't an issue. My concern is what can be done to alleviate sore throat when you don't have a cpap? I do...

I have been using CPAP/APAP for over 8 years. It works great and I love it. My question, what can you do for those nights when you can't use your cpap? If I sleep, or attempt to sleep without my Cpap, I get a horrible sore throat. Not just scratchy, but very painful. 8 of 10 on the pain scale. Becau...

Liberty is going to take care of me. Thanks for the information!! I will soon have a new cushion every month and new mask every 6 months. I am now at month 10 with same mask and cushion. This will help a lot.

LinkC , you are correct, that is what I am looking for in a dme. I am very aware of cpap.com and have bought many things from them through the years. I just recently got married, so I picked up BCBS as primary from my wife and kept Medicare as secondary for my disability. I need both as I have a lot...

Lincare does a good job of milking every cent they can from INS and Medicare, I have supplies running out of my drawers. I they have now went to robot calling you monthly for supplies to make sure they have milked the system for the max profits. I am in the process of not ordering anything until I ...

I don't have a volt ohm meter but will go get one. Any ideas
as a best place to get one? Thanks

I made sure it was plugged in correctly, the plug is warm, and I tried the outlet on my clock. I made sure the connection was good and tight at the plug / hose position. Any ideas? It is less than a year old and I have been very careful with it. Thanks

I just wanted to see what an s7 elite with integrated humidifier would be worth. It has been in a closet for years, I kept it for a backup but never needed it. My insurance paid for a new one, so I thought I would sell it. Not sure of the hours as I am looking for the power cord. It must be low hour...

I need an s7 power cord. They are two prong and I didn't see any at the site that sponsers this site, cpap.com I think the xbox is 2 pronged, but I have no idea if it would work. I am trying to power it up to find out the hours and sell it as a back up.

I hope my data shows up, if not, M Series Aflex, Encore pro with card reader, activa mask, M series HH. I have been reading data for the 5.5 years and never had any leak problems. Still don't have leaks. I don't think mouth breathing is a problem, as it has never been. Wife said she has never seen m...

I have recently had a few night when I wake up with my heart racing and it feels like it is going to come out of my chest. Also, I will be sweating. I have been on apap for over 5 years with HH and use it every night. Does anyone think this could be apap related? I talked to the doctor and he said t...

Girlfriend is RN, MSN and she made me go get a sleep study.

It is such a great feeling to have a doctor that you trust and wil LISTEN!!
