Hi all,
Been on CPAP now since January.. and only just now stumbled across this forum... Nothing quite like finding out there are actual real people out there who share my affliction AND can appreciate the amazing revelation I felt after my first night on CPAP!!
I've got a heap of questions, but ill refrain from just asking em all until I've had a chance ot have a good bash at the search button (yes, I'm a veteran forum user )
Anyway.. its late here, so IM gonna have quick squiz around, and then head off to catch some (non-apnoea interrupted) ZZZZZ'z
Looking forward to 'meeting' some new friends here AND getting some answers to all those little questions I've had since becoming 'one of the club'.
Looks like a great resource and I cant wait to dig in!!
Hello... just found this forum!!

welcome, spelchek! I should warn you that our search function is not the best ever (though you've probably already discovered that). Feel free to ask anything you like - the information is probably out there already, and our lovely Rested Gal probably has the links to it - she has links to everything. (I'm convinced the CIA uses her to keep track of THEIR internet links. And if they don't, they should).

A trick to use with the search function is to "right click" on the result your
are interested in, then select "Open in new window". Then you can close
the "new window" and not the "results" window, and go on to the next one.

THANK YOU FOR THAT. It was very frustrating for me when doing searches.

Welcome spelchek,
Search is a great thing. I agree open in a new window.
Have fun.
There are also chats. Just click on "chatting Live" top, left of screen. Someone may come join you.
