My friend had an at home sleep study, they have kids and no one to watch them. So the at gome sleep study showed he has mild apnea and signifigant oxygen desatuaration. He has no insurance, so the sleep study cost a lot. So the dr wanted gim to have an over night titration study, but again thats not possible. So is an auto or apap a good idea. I told hom i would try to find one without a prescription if it would help. His kids need him.

there's a guy on the forum here who's hobby is finding good deals on used cpaps on craigslist. (grayghost)

some insurance companies do the home test then a auto cpap to handle the titration duties... so it's a perfectly valid method for the majority of apnea sufferers.

I have been doing the same with my local Craigslist and have a brand new in box zero hour PRS1 560P auto with humidifier that I can offer for $450 plus shipping. It comes with a new sealed Resmed Mirage FX mask as well as hose, filter, SD card, manuals and bag.

Or, if a humidifier is not needed I have another PRS1 560P Auto (no humidifier) with .2 hours on it. It comes with hose, filter, SD card, and bag with a choice of opened masks (Eson, Wisp or Gel Cushion) for $325 plus shipping.

Let me know if you are interested in either and I can post pictures for you. Or if you register as a member you can PM me.

Thanks for be a good friend to that family, it sounds like they need you too.

Greyhost, I can't pm for some reason, I live in northern Indiana. And any idea where a full mask is cheaper?

greyhost, i do have the sleep study result, there was no prescription as the dr wanted the titration study. if you need the sleep study i can post what it said when i get home, as i said it said signifigant oxygen desaturation. mild sleep apnea.
