Re: Rarely sleep more than 6 hrs.

Seems to be regardless of conditions. I could starve myself of sleep for 3 days, find a dark, soundproof room, and have a mask with no leaks... I’m still only going to get 6hrs at the most. Anyone else have this issue? Any ideas what could be the cause(s)? Welcome to the club...though this is not a...

Re: Fake Distilled Water Sold in Canada

Grey Goose looking better all the time. john Why even pay for the Grey Goose? You can take any cheap Vodka and run it through a Brita filter 3-4 times, and voila! PREMIUM VODKA! Try it! Something I learned in University from my Chemistry professor. Can't always afford to buy the good Vodka, but you...

Re: вопрос не в тему

По моему мнению Вы не правы. Я уверен. Могу отстоять свою позицию. Пишите мне в PM, пообщаемся. According to Google Translate, this guy said: "In my opinion you are wrong. I'm sure. I can defend its position. Write to me in PM, we get started." What exactly he means by this, I have no idea. Dear mo...

Re: Fake Distilled Water Sold in Canada

This isn't a one off event. It actually occured over several months with use of the same brand. I'm going to start using a different brand from now on. In a perfect world, you should be able to just call the stores managers and they will take care of it from there. But my experience has been that it...

Re: Fake Distilled Water Sold in Canada

I have been buying my distilled water at Shoppers Drug Mart but don't like their containers as well as the Morning Mist brand I use to get at A & P. I DO want actual distilled water though so will put up with the containers at Shoppers. I friend of mine who works at Loblaws said she'd get me a bott...

Re: Fake Distilled Water Sold in Canada

nobody wrote: I distill my own water with a little distiller I bought, it does a gallon at a time.
I'd like to thank you for that idea. I think I'll invest in one of those.

Re: Fake Distilled Water Sold in Canada

Hmmm, you have me worried....I'm going up to Canada next week....and I've asked to distilled water waiting for me.

Re: nosebleads

Anything to help stop will be appreciated......My humidifier is on setting 6 of 10.....no rain I use a saline nasal spray before sleep.... You might wanna crank that puppy right up to 10 and see if that helps. On my own Respironics CPAP, I set my humidifier to 5 of 5...and it still seems kind of dr...

I feel more awake when I first get up in the morning than I used to. I don't feel more energetic, but I am getting more things done so I guess that I mu...

I normally buy my distilled water for my CPAP machine at Metro. (formerly Dominion) They also own Food Basics as well. The only brand of distilled water they carry is the 4 litre Selection brand. Now, they claim that the water is free of Calcium and other things which should be the case if the water...

Re: Mask for Sale: $1450.00

...Both previously finance professionals... Aren't these the same kind of people who got us into the whole subprime mortgage mess? Assuming the price is in Australian dollars, at $0.75 USD to $1 AUD that works out to $1087. I appreciate a good quality CPAP mask as much as any other sleep apnea suff...

I used to have problems staying asleep too. Then my shrink put me on 1 mg of Risperdal for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (that's another topic altogether). One of the side effects is, as soon as you take it, you need to go to sleep. So they reccomend taking it before bed. I sleep right through the n...
