My sleep apnea is GONE!!!

Back In July I went to my dme because I was fighting my machine! Based in the printout she said I still needed it. Well 2 months later I saw my sleep doctor he said he wanted to see what is going on so I went for a 2nd sleep study. I was told since I already had OSA I mask would automatically be put...

Re: Ambien: good or bad?

I've had ambient prescribed to me by my sleep doctor since being diagnosed and starting cpap in sept 2012. Honestly it helps a lot I'm on 10mg I can go days without taking it though without it being addicting. I do have trouble sleeping without it though I still find narcotics much more addicting.

Re: I haven't been here in FOREVER!

Hi Laura and welcome back. I can understand totally some of the issues you have when dealing with your machine. I'm currently a Soldier on active duty and I have deployed to Afghanistan with this thing. Just the hassle of getting permission to deploy was crazy. I've traveled to Russia many times wi...

Re: I haven't been here in FOREVER!

How about we try to isolate some of the annoyances that we can do something about and improve on them if we can? Pick a complaint and see what you can do to lessen the annoyance. Hose problems...have you ever used any sort of hose management system? If not...might want to look into trying something...

Re: I haven't been here in FOREVER!

Well.....how about we try to figure out why you hate cpap and see what we can do to make it so you at least don't hate it? Bummer that the weight loss hasn't worked the miracle yet but sometimes life doesn't give us miracles no matter how much we want or hope for them. Well i am embarrassed by it n...
