Re: Firing you doctor and acupuncture.

It irritates me that the Doctors can't seem to run their business on time. Many years (30+) I had a Dr. in Houston that always kept me waiting in the waiting room.

Re: Question, Help

I have downloaded SleepyHead and her results are very good. I look at it every day and she is usually around AHI 3. I upped the lower pressure to 7.5 and she says it is better and she said she only felt like she was drowning once last night. Should I up the pressure to 8.0?

Thanks,
Rick
