Re: How often does CPAP.com have sales on?

Ok good to know! I already spend 4-5 months in the US so getting myself things while down there is easy. I also have friends in Michigan who I can ship to that will reship to me if I'm not seeing them anytime soon.

@ramblingasian Are the prices a lot better than we can get from DME's and elsewhere from within Canada?

Re: Need a GOOD GTA Ontario DME-preferrably Durham/Scarb

Just saw online there is a new PR machine coming out. DreamStation. Looks good from the posted pic. Love to know when this one will hit the Cdn market. Not sure about the specs yet. @ramblingasian I was under the misguided impression that the ResMed A10 Elite did not supply the user with as much dat...

Re: Need a GOOD GTA Ontario DME-preferrably Durham/Scarb

Before spending any money with any of them, familiarize yourself with the Ontario OHIP ADP rules. You can google them. OHIP will fund 75% of the cost of your equipment. It also specifies the cost that DMEs can charge the patient. DMEs have a habit of trying to inflate the costs and lately have take...

Re: Need a GOOD GTA Ontario DME-preferrably Durham/Scarb

Thanks for the replies. The two places I have read the most complaints about is Medigas and Vitalaire oddly enough. Perhaps it differs depending on which exact location of both those companies as they each have a lot of locations. I went to a smaller CPAP DME today to not only have a look at the pla...

Re: Auto CPAP Machine vs Fixed CPAP?

I've got a rough idea about this now. Got a chance to speak to an RT at a Clinic. Thanks for the answers.

Auto CPAP Machine vs Fixed CPAP?

I've been voraciously trying to read all I can on here. I have lots of questions I hope to get answered before I go for my titration sleep study early next week. 1st one is about the CPAP machines. I've been reading that most people seem to favour the auto CPAP or I guess you'd refer to them as APAP...
