He was to perform the same procedure on my husband 2/22, but alas this was not to be. Since the practice is now completely in an uproar trying to recover, they couldn't see us for mon...

Sorry it took me so long!

Sorry it's taken me so long to reply to you all. Things got a little hectic this past week, and I've been unable to get back to this.

Liam - the funny thing is, when the "gentleman" at LinDon'tCare became frustrated with my insistance on an APAP, he actually suggested that I call Keene Medical! I guess even he knows that they're superior. If it turns out that I must go through a DME, I'll call them. If we can drive from Winnipesa...

Is my DME's RT and idiot, or am I?

Hi everybody - long time lurker, first time poster. Trying to accomplish the "apparently impossible" for my husband. Here's the deal: He was scheduled for removal of uvula and some soft palate, along with shifting of his septum. This was scheduled for yesterday, and cancelled on Saturday - surgeon p...
