Re: What I learned Take what you like leave the rest

I guess you missed the first line. If what I say does you no good, ignore it. I got on here to find out why I couldn't get the AHI off the machine even though I could read it. Someone did explain that to me for which I am grateful. Then I got insulted for getting a cheap "brick" and not paying out a...

What I learned Take what you like leave the rest

1. Don't depend on the doctors to take care of any of your conditions. You will be "sold" things you don't need. This is imperative, if you are paying for your medical care and there's no middle man insurance company. Unfortunately, the current medical system is built on consumerism. 2. Research eve...

Re: Sleepy head is not reading the AHI

Thank you. Yes the machine is that machine with black and grey. Yes I do not see heated hose. So I guess it does not have that. My husband had clogged nose with other machine, this one does not do that. He says this one does not cause plugged nose. It has a humidifier. Yes I can see on the face of t...

Re: Sleepy head is not reading the AHI

The machine is the ResMed Air STart 10Apap. It does have a heated hose and a humidifier. If I can't figure out how the doctor got the AHI averages, but I can't. I could just write them down manually.

Re: Sleepy head is not reading the AHI

Okay Thanks.. BTW the machine was not cheap, but it was not over a 1,000 dollars like the other machine which lasted only two years. I believe that machine was 700 dollars and recommended by the doctor because we couldn't pay out the over 1,000 dollars. Interesting because the doctor was able to get...

Sleepy head is not reading the AHI

Hi,

my husband got a new machine called AirStart 10. All of his data downloaded but the AHI did not download, it just says 0 on everything. Does anyone know why it did not download, all the other information is correct. I saw the doctor download it and she had everything.

Re: US healthcare the best?

No it's not. There's widespread scientific fraud and abuse. There are drugs that don't work, or are dangerous. This man is from the Nordic Cochrane collaboration, and they review scientific data and they don't have nice things to say. Some people are not getting the help they need, some people are g...

Anxiety disorders and Sleep apnea

Does anyone know, does poor sleep quality related to anxiety make the AHI number go up. For example, not getting good rest say. For example if you have a stressful meeting the next day or something the next day. You sleep but, toss and turn a lot. So it's a restless sleep. Will that register as clea...

Re: Heartburn

for an easier way to eat apple cider vinegar try looking in the natural food section. There's a major brand of salad dressing that is just mainly olive oil and apple cider vinegar. Just put a little on salad or vegetables. It's much easier than drinking it straight. Someone told me Cheyenne pepper i...

Re: Can someone please help me

Wow that's a great Idea about the Remzzzz. I never thought of that. I could make that Remzzzz thing out of CLOTH! Save me some money and recycle old tee shirts. Thanks CPAP guy. I did lower the pressure a notch and it seems he's better. I also been having him take advil at night because his hip hurt...

Re: Heartburn

Before doing anything, check all side effects of medications. Many years ago, I was given a medication and had HORRIFIC heart burn. I spent a lot of money having medical tests to find out why. Nobody ever told me to check the side effects of medications. well sure enough I quit taking a medication, ...

Re: Can someone please help me

The Remzzz mask liners really helped my husband. He was getting this horrible sore on his nose from the mask. The Remzzz really cut down on the leaks too. I think they are about one dollar a day, because you have to use a new one every time because it gets all stretched out. They come in different s...
