Re: low carb diet?
About 10 yrs ago a group of co-workers and I started to low carb it, along the Atkins line...one of our docs and his wife were also doing the same. I have to say, I've never felt better in my life. I had tons of energy, felt great ( we all did ) This was in the ER setting, so we were very busy. I've...

Re: Do you tape your mouth or use a chin strap?
I used tape last night for the first time....I cough now and then in the night, so that presented a problem of sorts, but I woke up enough to take it off a little to get the cough out.....hence, I am alive today with no serious effects. I'll do it again tonight ! It was a good suggestion for me from...

Re: Illegal Bedtime Routine
This is funny to me ( in a way ) there are so many people doing way worse things before bed than going online to look at a forum, or play a game. With the crime rate so high, we shouldn't worry about the little things ! I do have a TV in my bedroom, and I actually use it ( I'm sure I'll be arrested ...

Re: Sandman HC Humidifier settings
Good morning Mars... Back when I got this machine I was not insured, and I made payments each month. I'm sure that the DME was trying to make things affordable for me at that time. I do have insurance now, and the DME calls now and then to see if I want a new machine...lol Might not be a bad idea ! ...

Re: Sandman HC Humidifier settings
Mars, Thank you for responding to my question. I just adjusted the humidifier from 2 to 4 ( I'm impatient ). I wasn't able to turn off the ramp as it looks like the RT set it at 4 ( comfort ) to 9, over 20 min and it's locked. It appears that your machine, and mine are identical, with the exception ...

Sandman HC Humidifier settings
I am using the Sandman HC which is quiet, and small ( I like that ) I use the resmed nasal pillow headset. My ramp is set at 4.0 over 20 min with a setting of 9.0. Now, on to the problem... I'm afraid I haven't been very compliant with this machine. My mouth gets so dry in the night I have to take w...
