Re: OT: PLMD and Upcoming Sleep Study

Should examine restless leg syndrome as periodic limb movement is associated with it. CPAP won't really help. I am on some pretty strong meds for restless leg/plmd. Still get the odd night when the legs are "running a marathon" I basicall destroy the bed.

Re: milestone

just waiting for sleep lab report, then upgrading to an auto S9. .The S7 motor replaced last year. Cat keeps chewing the tube and eventually too much tape so I have replaced a lot of tubes. I am on my third full face mask. Been almost 7 years.

If you have an SD card reader built into your computer; it should read the card.. the newer pc/laptops come with them.

Re: Coughs are scary!

Try using a Neti pot, saline solution/rinse. I have a long lasting nasal drip causing coughing and the saline rinse worked perfectly http://WWW.Neilmed.com provides them in most drugstores or you can order over the net.

Re: Resmes S7 connector

he just brought out a cable, unpacked, and check polarity. Must have been used as he only charged $2. Going to look for a null modem connector, today. I have a feeling the cable is wrong.

Resmes S7 connector

I have downloaded the software. I know I need a cable to connect computer to the machine. I assume on end of the connector is a USB connector. The other end I am not sure about. There are two connector ports on the S7. Which one do I use and is there a name for the type of connector needed. Tx
