Re: resmed s7

Now Walmart has the Savings Catcher program. When I get home I log in and put in my receipt number. The Walmart system scans all the local print ads. If I paid more for any items than the sale price at another grocery store, Walmart gives me a store credit down to the competitors sale price. This sa...

Re: What is the quietest cpap?

I made my machine very quiet by following tips that came from here. Place the machine lower than the top of the mattress. Put a thick mouse pad under it. Use a thick hose cover. I hardly hear the air now.

Will he die young?

Analyses were undertaken to assess whether the arousal frequency, the central apnea index, and measures of sleep-related hypoxemia (i.e., TST90) were associated with mortality. Regardless of age and other covariates, arousal frequency and the central apnea index (Tables 4 and 5) were not associated...

There is a simple solution. Don't take a job at Walmart. (I seriously doubt they would hire you anyway.)
I have seen news article about many Walmart openings. There is always a photo of people lined up around the block applying for jobs.

It would hurt if my sweet and strong husband would call me "the wife". But he's too sweet to ever do that.

Re: Nightmares

The last couple times I was wearing my cpap I had terrible nightmares, most notably I kept dreaming a giant spider was on my face building a nest, etc. Has anyone else had bad dreams when using your machine? Keep a mirror and flashlight in the bed. You may be surprised. http://www.digyourowngrave.c...

Re: Do You Eat Gluten-Free?

Every relative I know who is staying away from it, is mislead into thinking it is healthier, not because they have an intolerance to it... That's funny. We have people in the office like that. I'm a water drinker when I go out and at the office. At home I make ice tea by the jug with a small amount...

The right question is whether sodas of any kind are bad for your health. The answer is yes they are bad. No...
