Re: Have you had a COVID-19 Vaccine or have an appt?
Quick update. In case it matters, I am 60. I received my 2nd shot last Tuesday (Moderna). Here's what I have experienced: Arm soreness. Very mild day 2 (nothing day 1). After that, only if I probed the area or lifted my arm, and that part stopped after 2 more days. Foggy head (some will say I always...

Re: macOS Big Sur does not like Sleepyhead
My Mac just updated to macOS Big Sur 11.2.2 and now it doesn't trust Sleepyhead any more. ;-( I really dislike computers when software developers just slam you with these updates without regard for how that may impact what you use your computer for.20210226_120352_resized.jpg Speaking as a software...

Re: Have you had a COVID-19 Vaccine or have an appt?
Second shot onboard yesterday at 10:30AM. So far, very minor side effects. I'm a bit foggy-headed and have very slight muscle aches. Started last night.
Symptoms can appear over the 5 or so days following the shot, so we shall see.

Re: paptizer UVC LED smart sanitized by Liviliti
Some people think that disinfecting is same thing as cleaning or sanitizing. But they are actually different: Cleaning removes dirt, dust, crumbs, and germs from surfaces or objects. When you clean, you will likely use soap (or detergent) and water to physically clean off the surfaces and objects. ...

Re: paptizer UVC LED smart sanitized by Liviliti
So lets talk about UVC (and not this specific device). Exposure to UVC for a certain period of time is a time-trusted disinfection technique. But it has several downsides, the most crucial to this use being that UVC is NOT transmitted by the materials used to make our CPAP systems. So all it can do ...

Re: Have you had a COVID-19 Vaccine or have an appt?
I am thinking that when it comes to my next shot...and more importantly my mom's, that I am going to be pro active especially for my mom....start with dosing for fever ahead of time and all that stuff. My mom's mind isn't where it needs to be and I just don't think she will understand that if she f...

Re: Super High Heart Rate With Sleep Apnea Scared
Just wanted to know if this happen to anybody else. Attached pic. I believe it's very common for untreated OSA patients to experience waking with a pounding heart, and yes, i did a well. There's one big reason I'll be treating this for the rest of my life ... I had full blown panic attacks when tha...

Re: Bleep leaks
As pugsy noted, I have had real issues getting a routine that works. Here's what I do: 1) I cut the long ends off the ports and save them. 2) I wash my face, especially around and on the nose, with https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08GYYQ5MB/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fabc_9WJP3GD2M82CQZ6C61MR .

Re: Have you had a COVID-19 Vaccine or have an appt?
In case anyone else reading this is in NH, initially I was unable to schedule an appointment for my 2nd short until March 27th (the ideal day according to Moderna would be 2/23). Per NH email I got that new appointments for 2nd shot were being added, I cancelled that and sweated because no new appoi...

Re: Bleep sleep web site.
Don't know if this is why, but there was/is a MAJOR internet outage along the eastern part of the country. I know a fiber was accidentally cut in NY, but it wasn't clear if that was the only problem. Verizon Fios customers are hit especially hard...
