This is very interesting. Watch the video in the article.

Veni, vidi, Velcro. I came, I saw, I stuck around.

Dx 11/07: AHI 107, central apnea, Cheyne Stokes respiration, moderate-severe O2 desats. (Simple OSA would be too easy. ;))

PR S1 ASV 950, DreamWear mask, F&P 150 humidifier, O2 @ 2L.

That was a pretty informative video and I recommend it for everyone who dreams (or wants to, unlike the poor mouse in the video who was prevented from entering REM).

The personable video producer informs us about various theories concerning dreams and doesn't tend to get overbearing on one particular theory. Still, at the end,I was asking myself: What the hell are dreams for anyway? Just like the presenter and most of the scientists involved I realized, we know more about deep space than deep INNER space .

I like my ResMed AirFit F10 FFM - reasonably low leaks for my ASV therapy. I'm currently using a PR S1 AutoSV 960P Advanced. I also keep a ResMed S9 Adapt as backup. I use a heated Hibernite hose. Still rockin' with Win 7 by using GWX to stop Win 10.
