No, but it will affect your treatment. Cheers.

I would go get some antibiotics from your doc if you have been suffering for almost 2 months with sinus inflammation. I also would try switching to a nasal mask instead of a nasal pillow mask to see if it makes any difference, and I would change the filter even if it didn't look dirty.

julee, that's a shame. hope you get your money for the shipping.

Hyperlexis, the state of Illinois doesn't seem to have as many resource centers as other states, but here you go: http://www.pascenter.org/state_based_stats/adrc.php?state=illinois It really helps to have a person go through this stuff with you in person rather than try to punch a bunch of numbers a...

Here it is: Its done in person with a real human being who can help you evaluate various medicare supplement plans. I cant vouch for TX, but in the midwest they are wonderful resource and are great with all sorts of questions:

how many hours per night are you using your APAP? how many hours per night do you sleep?

i am not in your shoes, with mild apnea, but i still don't think i would be bringing that machine over to the relatives house just yet.

Google under senior resources or similar with the state or county name where you reside and there should be a link to the resource cente...

hi maggie and welcome! complete your registration and then you can send a personal message to STLMark as he frequently has deals on new or nearly new equipment for less than your deductible/out of pocket and rental costs. mcdover and papman also frequently have deals. another alternative is to look ...

BUMP

I realize that sleep apnea is a dangerous thing and I would like to get back on CPAP but not at the expense of my old nemesis coming back to haunt me. I cannot state that enough. It would be hard for a non sufferer to understand this.......or possibly even a mild sufferer. I do understand. I do als...
