Re: lincare complaints

Thank you, SewTired! I may have to resort to this. At the moment, I'm just sick of dealing with it. And yes, at the beginning of this month, I received another dunning notice, same as the others, not acknowledging my notes, nor saying my payment was under investigation. I took extreme pleasure in ri...

Re: lincare complaints

I have had good experience with the reps from Lincare. They are not my CPAP provider, but when I was hospitalized I supposedly was dropping O2 sats very low while I slept, so the staff pulmo ordered O2 for home use. It was a Sunday when I was discharged, and the guy beat me home! He was pretty thoro...

Re: New Mask Every 6 months.

here is a tip some may criticise me for and others may think great idea. but either way the explanation is that It is bourne of self preservation and the fact that I work very hard and pay my taxes which include funding of the NHS in the UK if a piece of kit nacks up and I do not have backup, my jo...

Re: switch from swift pillows to nano

Did you continue to use the Bella Loops with the Nano? No, but only because the Tap Pap was still my favorite. [snip] Besides, I am not much of a nasal cushion person. I did keep the Nano though. It worked quite well and if for some reason I can't use my nasal pillows for whatever reason then I wil...

Re: switch from swift pillows to nano

Tested the Nano cushion with the new hose and the Bella Loops...actually worked quite decently..needed probably another tweak on the Loops as they are real finicky to get "just right". That experiment surprised me. I thought the Nano cushion would drag the Loops down to much and present a problem b...

Re: OT My left leg is huge You saved my life.

I'm late back to the party, but so glad to hear prayers were answered and that you are doing well. Stormy! Since you are already doing hair again, sounds like you won't be getting bored! But, take it easy!

Re: REMstar pro M series with c-flex and Swift FX Bella?

Thanks, nanwilson! I tried that, but it seems to be stuck, and I was afraid to really force it. It's sticking out enough that it's easy to get a hold of, but it wouldn't budge. I'll try again, though, since now I know that it is supposed to come out if I pull straight. Thanks again!

Re: REMstar pro M series with c-flex and Swift FX Bella?

For some reason I can't start a new topic, but my question is related. Finally got hubby to make a follow up appointment, but I can't get the data card out of the REMstar PRO M series. I think they used to ask him to take in the whole machine. Suggestions? Thanks!

Re: Getting a copy of sleep study results and prescription

I can see where I was confused now. The paperwork that came with my Resmed S9 said it was a S9 Elite. However, on the unit itself it says Resmed Autoset. Apparently the wrong paperwork was placed with the machine. Ah. I was wondering, as it's my understanding that the Elite does not track any data ...

Re: OT My left leg is huge

Stay lying down and elevate your leg on a pillow. Don't move around any more than necessary and have your daughter pack up your stuff. Praying for you! I had one, too.
