Since she added a smidgen of her equipment information.......

Anybody want to take odds that she's got a "brick" and is mouth-breathing/leaking her therapy air?

That could account for the "crabby" username. Her therapy is ineffective and she has no idea why. She just wants to rant about it and everything else that's put a burr under her saddle for the last few years.

With the H5i humidifier her machine would have to be in the S9 series, and is available in the pull-down equipment list.
a few of the unusual s9 models aren't in the list.. adapt, ST, ST-A, copd, escape auto, etc.

possible, though less likely models

So I get hydrocondone (Tylenol) which tore up my stomach - yeah I needed another stomach ulcer. I asked the nurses to talk to the surgeon for a different pain med - and was told I had to take what was ordered by the hospital nurses and her office nurse. So yes, I am ticked off with "medical professionals" who know your body better than you do.
Some of that problem is due to our scumbag fascist government. They'd rather have people suffer in pain than take the risk that people will get high, so they make the drug companies mix acetaminophen with hydrocodone because the acetaminophen will kill you if you abuse the pills. Then they harass the doctors to keep them from giving out the painkillers without poison included.

The legitimate pain victims suffer, the addicts still get their high, but they get adulterated street drugs, or take the poisoned hydrocodone pills and end up in the hospitals with liver damage. Meanwhile the drug dealers and kingpins get richer, the drug interdiction industry gets bigger budgets and more power.
