Re: Need advice adjusting new wisp

I love the Wisp mask!! If I have a persistent leak (generally around the nose bridge area but occasionally around the cheek area), I loosen one of the side straps, lift the cushion up away from my face and re-seat it. That adjustment generally gets me through the night leak free. I also wipe the cus...

Re: Aliens visited again, UGLY night

They visited me too Pugsy. I did nothing different last night except eat a heavier dinner than normal about 6 p.m. ( I hadn't eaten all day and had a small steak and salad for dinner) and I feel awful today. I remember waking up a lot because I felt like I couldn't breathe. Might have been the apnea...

Re: Got Your Flu Vaccine Yet?

I got mine Wednesday at my doctor's office. It's the first time I've had the flu vaccine in seven or eight years. My arm did not get sore but I had nausea that night and sneezing/runny nose for half the following day. I started a new medicine the same night, so the nausea could have been from it. Af...

Medicare Advantage Plan MediGold

Hello all! I recently became eligible for Medicare and chose to go with one of the Medicare Advantage Plans,namely MediGold. I wanted to choose a DME close to me versus 60 miles away. I found one less than 2 miles from where I live and visited them yesterday with copies of my sleep studies and docto...

Re: Weight loss advice!?! - join in the fun

@ above

That may very well be true. All I can verify personally is that lowering the carbs has helped me lose weight for whatever reason.
Wheat could very well have been the culprit.

Re: Weight loss advice!?! - join in the fun

I enjoy a high fat, low carb diet too. If I had to put a name to my eating plan, it would be Atkins. I usually don't eat over 20 carbs a day and don't get hungry between meals. I am not, and have never been, a breakfast eater. I usually eat lunch around 3 PM and dinner between 7:30 and 8 PM. Before ...

Re: very off topic with a little sort of on topic

A year ago, I too lost a beloved pet . I cried for 3 weeks straight because I loved him like my child. My heart goes out to you. Time does make the loss bearable but you never forget how much they meant to you. I ran across this a few days ago and thought how very true it was: The one absolutely uns...

Re: Need a cheep CPAP

Try Miss Lily. She said she had an old one to give away for the price of shipping. Read her post (last one in the thread).

Re: Observation: New Mask and Grog

Interesting, Max! I suffer from "brain fog" too, have since I started Xpap 7 years ago and it really hasn't improved much. I have ordered several new masks and new hoses during that time, but never got a brain fog free day after using the new equipment. I occasionally DO have a good day but never ha...
