Sources of Used/Discounted Machines

Hello

Any help would be appreciated:

1. Any recommendations for sites or places offering used machines?

2. Does anyone have experience with http://www.cpaps4sale.qwhs.com ? Very low prices, but their site gives little info on the seller, who also has an anonymous email address!

Thanks
David

Res Auto Bi Pap for Sale?

Hello,

Does anyone have a Respironics Auto BiPap for sale? This is for my wife, who is an experienced user (currently renting). She has a prescription.

Also, can you recommend places to check for used machines for sale?

Thanks,
David

Hello Ailsaek, I am so happy that you are finding that proper rest is relieving so many of your seeming emotional troubles. I think you are discovering what so many have discovered: Deprive someone of a good nights sleep for weeks, months, or years on end, and darned if they don't start to have all ...

For whoever cares about this subject. I just got the word back from Proctor and Gamble that their Ivory soap, in bar form, is the last product they have that is real soap. "Ivory Snow" (their product in flake form) used to be soap, but it is now a detergent. All Ivory products, except their Ivory so...

Dreamstalker is right. Water use is just a scientific matter and is a function of the variables Dreamstalker and others mentioned. A primary and controlling variable, at least in usual circumstances, is the relative humidity of the air passing through the humidifier. If it is already very humid, the...

You don't need to spend that much money on an Auto Cflex machine. If you ARE going to spend $US1600, buy a Respiraonics Auto BiPaP w heated humidifier, and you are set for anything. Or, if you don't need the versatility and features (mainly the Bi Pap feature -- one pressure on exhale another on inh...

Hi, You can really damage your teeth if you don't do something to address the problem. I did. Now, I use a night guard. Your jaw muscles are REALLY powerful, and you can really hurt your teeth. I fractured one MOLAR, that had to then come out, and I wacked a good piece out of another one, requiring ...

Hello, Your question is logical and I had the same question myself: if these are auto machines, why even bother with titration? I am not an expert, but here are some answers I have seen. My wife has trouble breathing IN at 6 (which is where it is currently set to start out, when "ramping"), at least...

Hi Sleepy, I take from two to four tablets of the Nerve & Osteo and a gram (1,000 mg) of Twin Labs B1. I don't take B12 before going to sleep . . . have not tried it. The Nerve & Osteo acts as a muscle relaxant. The B1 really smooths out the nervious system. Neither has ANY grogginess in the morning...

Hi Birdshell, The regular Ivory bar soap you are using is real soap -- it is not a detergent. By "real soap" I mean the traditional definition of that word, a product that loosens dirt, make from animal or vegetable fats and burnt organic material, like vegetation or wood. Not too long ago, people k...
