Final word on sleep aids and drugs.
DO NOT TAKE THEM ! DO NOT TRY THEM ! DO NOT LISTEN TO THE HAPPY LITTLE TV COMMERCIALS! DO NOT TRUST THE DOCTORS ! I threw away the pills. Yes, some of them put you to sleep but they ALL have side effects and rebound. Rebound sucks and so do side effects. I just hope I go back to normal soon. Its bee...

FYI incase your curiouse about $$$ and DME
I just talked to the billing department and asked them how much money they make on these things. Here is what I learned: Some insurance companies buy them in bulk and charge the MSRP price to the insured account and the DME gets a percentage. My current insurance company and DME have the agreement t...

air blowing and your bed partner ??
How do you deal with the exhaust blowing all over your bed partner?
My arm hurts sleeping on one side all the time.
Why can't they make an air return tube to send it somewhere else?

Re: C-Flex??
Hells ya, C-FLEX or the newer A-Flex or similar technology should be given to EVERYONE in my opinion. It made breathing in that thing so much more comfortable and once i got used to the sounds it makes Ive been sleeping with it every night. There are no negatives to C-flex... other than a small chan...

Thats Ebay, They will not allow the sale of anything that requires a script such as a CPAP machine. EBAY goes two steps beyond and also includes ANYTHING that connects to anything else requiring a script. Thats only EBAY and nothing to do with Respirionics or any other manufacture or FDA. I know fir...

Doctors, drug reps and Rozerem
I talked to my doctor about improving my sleep. I told him I dont stay asleep and wanted to try Ambien CR because I did research and felt it was a good choice. Well, he insisted that I try Rozerem first because its a non controlled substance and the safest. I told him I read about it and its similar...

I dont have that mask. [quote="khallow"]I have the flex fit 406 mask and have noticed the last week or so that when I e...
