Re: Help, I'm overwelmed

Thank you all for your help. I just got back from the dme. I got the PRS1 model 550. They argued with me that I was prescribed a 450, but the idea asked to see it and it only said cpap. I told her to program the 550 in cpap mode or I would take my business elsewhere. She said no, so I stood up and s...

Re: Help, I'm overwelmed

I'm worried about the air blowing on my wife as well, although she is really behind me on this, how much worse is that than me snoring and then not breathing. Ok i got more info.

Re: Help, I'm overwelmed

I just got a call from my doctor and found out my numbers. AHI = 104 and oxygen went to 72%. They starting me at 13cm.

Any thoughts on these numbers, seems pretty bad to me.

Re: Help, I'm overwelmed

Thanks for that info. I already read your blog part 1. How to get to other parts? My insurance deductible is high, $3000, so I will be basically paying for this out of pocket, unless the sleep study costs more that that. Is it worth it to just buy one on-line and not mess around with the insurance m...

Help, I'm overwelmed

Hello, I have been trying to read thru the site to not ask newbie questions the last couple of weeks since I had my sleep study when I had free time, but I am almost more confused now than I was when I started. If I hadn't found this site, I would have taken whatever machine they wanted to give me a...
