Re: ASV Help Needed - See Page 3 AHI from 1-4 up to 50+

I’m happy to announce that my DME sent me a new mask today and when I see my doc Friday I will be able to provide my data via the Encore Pro 2.5 software. I suspect a new Titration Study is my smartest option. While I wait for that to happen I have to say I am looking forward to no more nose bridge ...

Thank you so much Jim! Having this tool has been extremly helpful. I also thank you for the forum and hope you understand I was suggesting an idea and not attacking the current format.

Re: Can this forum be edited to have sub-topics?

Yes Mars, you got it wrong. I took umbrage to some of the feedback but after taking a break I really see no harm in an open dialogue and rescind those two comments which I think is quite obvious from tonight’s two comments. But thank you for the analysis! If the question has been asked so many times...

Re: Can this forum be edited to have sub-topics?

Hi NJSleepless If you really want to minimize the longevity of this thread you need to edit your poll rules to limit the number of days to the number already passed since you posted it. I don't care to minimize a legitimate discussion. I just would hope that people would be respectful in the tact a...

Re: Can this forum be edited to have sub-topics?

I made a suggestion and respect the replies. Obviously others share my view. Just because categories would be added does not mean the quality of feedback would be reduced. This community rocks when it comes to helping others. How about adding more "Sticky" threads with the information most commonly ...

Re: Medicare....

U S Medicare will pay for one mask to start with. Any other masks will be paid for per the Medicare replacement schedule. Medicare doesn't care how many masks are tried because they only pay for one and won't pay again till it is allowed per the schedule. Actually Nan is correct. It is the manufact...

Re: Can this forum be edited to have sub-topics?

Yeah, that's the sense I'm getting right now Oh well. I am benefitting for the forum but not looking for a fight. I'm 100% with you...I thought an ASV forum would have been a great idea as well, so you're not alone. But I once saw a post by JohnnyGoodman who explained that this format is intentiona...

Re: Can this forum be edited to have sub-topics?

Rarely is a thread closed by admins and then only when something truly abusive is going on. Thankfully there are no admins with the attitude that think they have superior knowledge and know when to close a thread. I hope you grow to like the forum as it is. I very much like the forum as it is and a...

Re: Can this forum be edited to have sub-topics?

If you look through the entire forum you see hundreds of repeated questions and posts. This could easily be avoided. With the current format we could also address this with more Sticky threads. Simple is the last thing that comes to mind but you guys like it and I just wanted to share my input beca...

What kind of medication do you folks use to control your GERD?

For me it's Prevacid.

Re: Can this forum be edited to have sub-topics?

Perhaps keywords could be used in topic line--even more than they are. (usually noobs are the likeliest not to) I brought that up in a topic one time. Got somewhat bashed for it so have refrained from mentioning it again. It is a good suggestion though. Yeah, that's the sense I'm getting right now ...

Re: Can this forum be edited to have sub-topics?

Fair enough. I'm a member of many forums that are much better organized. I was simply asking. A good example would be the technology groups I’m a member of http://www.sevenforums.com . Just food for thought. When I first came here I was told to post my question in the ASV forum which I had to search...

Re: Do you have GERD?

I have had GERD since I was an adolescent and have been taking Prevacid for nearly 14 years now. I was actually diagnosed with Barretts Esophagus when I was 17 but after yearly endoscopies it was determined I was close to developing the full disease but it was reversed. I have found no relief though...
