Re: Who's got REM behavior disorder?

Once I was dreaming I was a frog. Leaped out of bed, hitting the dresser and bruising several ribs ! Dan

Re: Adjusting your own pressures can be dangerous

Avil123 is not a troll. I can say I dont agree with all of his posts, nor yours Archangle. In fact many times, such as this post, your way off base. As we would say in the Navy, " A loose cannon on the deck ! " dan

Re: What Download Data The Sleep Doc Wants To See

What Ive found is neither the DR or RT who downloaded my card to Resscan knew how to read the charts produced. All they wanted to see was a summary report for a month or two, showing Ahi and compliance ! Dan

Re: Choosing an ASV machine

I have the Resmed S9 ASV and love it, wouldn't change a thing, usually sleep 8 to 9 hours a night with a AHI of less than 1. It has learned my sleep pattern and protects me ! Ive heard the Respironics ASV works great if its tweaked just right. More adjustments to play with, more to drive you nuts !
