Re: O2 consentraters-anyone own one? Rent one?

I use one and rent it from my DME but you can buy one as long as you have a prescription for it. I found that if you want to buy you have to use an online supply house for the best prices.

Re: OSA and excessive daytime sleepiness.

I wouldn't say you sleep at a weird or wrong time. I also have odd sleep times but I just say it is cause I live in the wrong time zone. I don't have real good answer for why the doctor put down EDS but I feel sometimes they add it to help justify to the insurance companies the need for the sleep st...
