Hi, a little tangent here for you - have you considered asking your MD to refer you for a wrist splint (made for people with carpal tunnel problems) that you can wear at night? They can be very effective in holding your wrist and hand in a 'neutral' (non-aggravating) position and alleviating tingling.

Hi, I think you should bring it up with her MD. You may have just noticed her breathing, but she's probably had it awhile and another few wks aren't worth the risk that you're playing 'doctor' could pose. Only he can address the problem (if there is one that's not attributable to her other medical c...

Hi, if my autopap is set very low (6) and I use an Activa, can it be effective? The cushion doesn't seem to expand very much at all, or rather does seem to flatten (stomach/side sleeping) as soon as I lie down after putting it on - and it does fill when I put it on, but do I need a much higher setti...

Dreamweaver - what you are seeing is common in certain very serious events where people who 'die' will see themselves exactly in the way you describe, and then 'return' to their bodies when they are brought back either by CPR, or defibrillation, etc. It is NOT a 'spiritual' thing at all, but a recog...

I have a copy of Encore Pro, My Encore and the DT3500 card reader. Well, I got all set up, only to find that my old PC (I now use a Mac) would not accept the programs beyond installation, so my husband said he'd put the programs on his PC. He installed the 2 E. programs (card reader last, via usb), ...

Oh, I'm sorry! Never heard of that, thought you were referring to a medical condition!

Worst fitting mask I ever tried.

Hi, I'm a little concerned about the route you're taking with your baby. A used machine from a friend, a new MD when you arrange it, etc. Why aren't you taking her directly to a hospital right away to make sure there are no urgent problems, possibly neurological, or respiratory, that may only incide...

If it makes you feel any better, I found it to be the most useless one I've ever tried!

The c-flex feature is one that will adapt to your breathing pattern in such a way as to make exhaling easier, as some people have difficulty dealing with that.

Hi, I'm in N.S. and have been using a Remstar auto x 2 yrs. It seems to be the most 'popular' and reliable machine around. I disagree that you 'have' to have the humidifier, but that's probably because we're surrounded by water here(!), but I would certainly be sure I got a machine with it, whether ...

Thank you everyone for helping! I placed an order (after 'Removing' 2 extras that had somehow taken) and will now await my SCR. Thanks again.

Tom, thank you, I'll try that right now!

Hi, I have the software (Linda), and all I need is the SCR, but will have to wait til the a.m. here (east coast) and think about calling them if I haven't heard back. Thanks anyhow.

Hi, you may have a problem called thoracic outlet syndrome, where a small rib compresses your thoracic nerve, sometimes causing cold and blueness in your arm. It's not uncommon, doesn't really signify anything serious, many people never realize they have it, but it could be a problem for sleeping th...
