Re: REM Sleep without antonia & REM Behavior Disorder

From what I understand (,) this is a disorder that means you move when you should...

Use yours - the "n"'s in the wrong place.
Try again. It's not "wrong place". The error is using two "n's". There is only one "n" in "atonia".

Re: Stomach Sleep - best sleep ever, but shoulders destroyed

my head. I cannot sleep without a pillow, even on my stomach. My shoulder naturally slides under the pillow to prop me up. I'm concerned the pillow will do some damage in the long-term to your neck. Remember what Falcon said, Personally, I found that it actually took a little time to get used to th...

Re: Stomach Sleep - best sleep ever, but shoulders destroyed

is there a sensible solution to train myself to keep the mouth shut? Some claim to have done it by training the tip of the tongue to stay on the roof of the mouth. Many others have had no success. Human anatomies vary. Is there some magic chin strap that will gently force me to keep the jaw shut? N...

Re: REM Sleep without antonia & REM Behavior Disorder

Please clarify the subject line. I don't understand that part of the diagnosis. Do you have REM Behavior Disorder or not? What are your symptoms?

How are you doing? Are you sleeping well? Do you have energy during the day? What does your CPAP efficacy data generally look like?

Re: DS1 to DS2 - Medicare 5 Yr Replacement Time Frame

Would it be the opinion or experience that 03/2026 replacement date based on the original machine would be the one used for Medicare/Insurance purposes? My philosophy is to get a new machine as soon as insurance will pay for it. Just let the DME try for insurance preapproval. Don't take delivery un...

The question is if I there's leakage while asleep and to figure that out if someone knows and thanks in advance to anyone who helps. Do you get dry mouth at night but not in the day? You could sleep with your lips taped closed for one night and check the leak level the next morning. The leak number...
