Re: Respiration rates

I bumped it up to 6 last night I will keep it at this for a few days and see how it goes. I had a CPAP for years but stopped using it for about 4 years because I lost a lot of weight and didn't need it anymore. I bought this APAP last month out of pocket because I can't get into the sleep doc until ...

Re: Respiration rates

I mostly stay around 5 but my wife says it sounds like a struggle for air. My nose has been stuffed or plugged up for months now. I might try and set the min to 6 just to give me a little more pressure.

Re: United Health Care, Apria, and rental/Purchase

I have someone else that is getting a CPAP that works with me. He has had the study done and UHC is telling him he has to use Apria. He has made his deductible this year($1,500)(copay 80/20) but will reset at Jan 1. Apria is telling him that his deductible will not reset as he has to rent it for 10 ...

Re: Resmed Platinum RMA replacement stock

Re: Resmed Platinum RMA replacement stock

There were only 8 hours on it after my first night so it was new. I just thought it was weird that it said RMA replacement stock since I was buying a new one.

Re: United Health Care, Apria, and rental/Purchase

Got a call back from Apria and they said United health would not approve a new CPAP until i have another study done. I am so happy that I got one from Cpap.com and my treatment has already started again. If I waited for insurance it would be another 4-5 months before I could start again. Do you thin...
