Re: Congress Passes Socialized Medicine & Mandates

I personally believe that a person's right to live in good health is irrelevant of their ability to pay for it. I am assuming you did not really mean what you typed. Babies are born every day with horrible genetic conditions and will never live in good health. Many of them live short tortured lives...

Re: CPAP and Christian Science

I do thank everyone for your kind thoughts. I am not too surprised that CSers have found this and have come to help. The love and generosity of Christian Scientists never ceases to amaze me.

Re: Congress Passes Socialized Medicine & Mandates

I personally believe that a person's right to live in good health is irrelevant of their ability to pay for it. A couple of questions: 1. Where is any such "right" stipulated? 2. Whom or what grants this "right"? 3. What makes it the Government's duty to defend this "right"? 4. Where do chronic or ...

Re: CPAP and Christian Science

I would find it really hard to believe that there are no CS diabetics, and that is one illness that goes downhill very fast without medical treatment, equipment, etc. What happens to CS diabetics - do they all succumb or do they get treated? I ask because if your parents understand that type of sit...

Re: Congress Passes Socialized Medicine & Mandates

So I see this is a heated debate. I prefer to look at this pragmatically... We can all agree on a couple points: 1: America has arguably the best medical treatment and research in the world 2: It is also very expensive 3: The health care distribution system needs to be updated We also (probably) agr...

Re: CPAP and Christian Science

Christian Science and medication or medical treatment is tough to explain, so I will do my best. Christian Science first and foremost holds the healing power of God as the answer and solution to all physical problems. The fact that no chemicals or drugs are used is irrelevant. The simple fact is tha...

CPAP and Christian Science

This may sound strange, but please be understanding. What is simple and obvious to most is not always for CS. I was raised in Christian Science. I am 25 and no longer follow the religion. I am currently living with my parents and have not told them that I am using a CPAP machine. To my knowledge the...

Re: CPAP n00b here

I don't know a lot about Resmed machines so can't help you with the software but having yoru equipment there will bring people who do know about Resmed machines to the thread. Some Durable Medical Equipment providers have the software and can read your data card for you. You could ask at the place ...

Re: CPAP n00b here

OP here: Sorry for the confusion. I didnt know it would allow you to post w/o logging in. The software for my machine seems to be hard to come by. Will some docs read the data and give me cheap medical advice? BTW, my numbers were even lower today AHI of 2. ------ On a side note, I have noticed some...
