A man was walking along the shore of a perfectly round lake with a one kilometer diameter. The lake is 20 meters deep at all points. He sees some friends fishing in the very middle of the lake and calls out to them. They answer, "Come out and fish with us." So he walks out to them and begins fishing...

Re: Nightmares...maybe REM isn't such a good thing
I notice when I have violent dream I seem not to be able to get enough air and that wakes me up. Really, since I started wearing the mask/masks my sleep has been horrible. Before I just snored. Now I am often a walking zombie. Something may be wrong with your CPAP therapy. Maybe your pressure setti...

Get the software and look at what is actually going on instead of making guesses.

Re: Another approach to Provent
A simple question to the doc could be something like, "In the sleep study how did I do in nonsupine positions and is there sufficient evidence to say that nonsupine sleeping by itself would be successful or would not be successful in treating my mild apnea?" You seem to believe both I and the profe...

Re: Another approach to Provent
At this point I continue to maintain that everyone should have an analysis of positional affects on their condition before experimenting with Provent. Many will find that positional therapy is more effective than Provent at no additional ongoing cost and no inconvenience of trying to get little thi...

Re: OT - Statins and You
The water gets muddier. Some genetic mechanisms that raise plasma HDL cholesterol do not seem to lower risk of myocardial infarction. These data challenge the concept that raising of plasma HDL cholesterol will uniformly translate into reductions in risk of myocardial infarction. Lancet May 17, 2012...

Re: 87 yo fem trying to use Respironics BiPAP unit
You asked a lot of questions but many of them cannot be answered until you can see some data.
Work on posting the exact model machine and you will get advice on how to get the data.
God bless you and your mother,

Re: Another approach to Provent
Very good point. From an academic standpoint, it makes one wonder as to how effective the early cpap machines were compared to the machines of today. Nate Here are a lot of assumptions but I would think for a typical OSA patient who had a good titration in the lab and could deal with what were prob...
