Don't worry about your sleeping partner. My husband is glad I don't snore and keep him up. The machine is very quiet. I was very consci...

Re: Lincare CPAP Supplies
I use Lincare. Depending on who you talk to, the response to any question has 15 different answers if you ask 15 different people. With my last order, I was told I needed to go in for a fitting since I was switching masks back to my original mask. I said I am using that mask right now, I know it fit...

Re: New, Severe, Really Concerned
For your peace of mind, you could get a KARDIA heart monitor. When you wake up in distress, use it to test you EKG. It records and stores the info. so you can show it to your dr. I believe the company is called Alive Corp. My cardiologist recommended it. www.alivecor.com.

Re: Accessory case for Dreamstation Go
I use my Resmed Airsense 10 Case for traveling with my Dreamstation GO. The hard GO case, size medium, fits inside the Resmed case with room to spare for the mask and long hose on top. It's helpful because airline employees recognize it as a cpap machine case VS putting it in a generic bag.

Re: Donations requested by St Louis hospitals.
The television spot on our local news showed a Doctor in the ER with one on. It's a full face scuba mask. The long hose comes out the top of the headpiece, and runs down behind his back to his waist. The belt has a battery pack and a little box for the blower out of the cpap. It has the in line anti...

Re: Apnea or Afib
Get a Kardia monitor and it will record your heartbeat and tell you if you are in AFIB.
