Re: If you ask for advice, PAY ATTENTION!!!

Re: I failed the Sleep Study

Congrats enchanter. You've managed to keep several people paying attention to your drama for days. Good work by someone who knows how to remain the focus.

Re: Can you feel a restricted airway/thick neck?

I think my memory (and brain in general) is foggy. I just remembered him as being obsessed with health issues. I was thinking out loud here.

Re: Coughing up mucus in the morning

I have a loose "smokers cough" every morning and i have never smoked. It takes a good cough to clear and then am fine the rest of the day. I attribute it to the humidifier but when i try lowering it i am too dry. I am interested in hearing responses. Post nasal drip could be a possibility too.

Re: Mask smells weird

My mask smells like whatever I cooked that day. Luckily I rarely cook. I also smell shampoo if I use that to clean the mask no matter how long I rinse so I tend to just use Ivory hand soap now and no smell...except for the rare cooking smell.

Re: Can you feel a restricted airway/thick neck?

If you spend every waking moment focusing on your health you are bound to notice some things that seem 'off'. Try to find something to do or help someone or ask the people here how they are doing. Anything to keep you from self absorption is the best health fix there is.

Re: What to do?

I'm curious about this. My machine was set to go from 8 to 16 (top number being moved up from 10 because I spent most of the night hovering at top number. I felt terrible as if i had been blowing up balloons all night and new DME had me try lowering the top number a bit at a time. I am now set at 8-...

Re: Problems with SD card and Mac

I'm ok with the machine rejecting it but was curious that I would only get the one day loading onto SH. With my old computer I had days of data. I like to compare. I will get a new card and see how that goes. Thanks for the input.

Re: Problems with SD card and Mac

I thought when I hit "yes" I was erasing all the previous data because I would only get one days data when the sleepyhead read the card each time.

Problems with SD card and Mac

I used to check sleephead on my old laptop but since trying it with my Mac (downloaded the apple version of SH and lock and unlock the card) I have to erase the damn thing each time I put it back in the machine. I gave up and don't bother checking any more but am getting curious so thought I would a...

Re: Would you have gotten up?

If you were able to fall asleep without it I would skip it and try to taper the dose on other nights to see how you do.

Re: OT:Defective frog--DCIS Stage ZERO! ---CURABLE!

I had 6 nodes removed and no sign of LE but I too lost my good vein. Have to use hand on other arm now. It's also hard to put a blood pressure cuff on yourself using left hand. Good luck. I bet you will ace it.
