Re: Can my GP prescribe me with a apap?

If you can't go down the DIY route, talk to your doctor and see if they will order a home test for you. Most insurances will spring for that as they're very cheap compared to an in-lab study.

Re: I can't keep my mask on.

Good news everyone ! (said professor Farnsworth) The band-aid tips helped a lot. Big thanks to everyone :) As Pugsy said previously, in time, your brain will stop seeing the mask on your face as a threat and you will leave it alone. It take a little while though. I was spontaneously taking my mask ...

Re: Two Questions.

From personal experience in the ER as a patient, I bet that the palpitations are manifestations of stress or anxiety brought on by problems adjusting to the cpap. I'm going to second this, as I experienced them at first too. As my brain got more comfortable with the idea of an alien baby on my face...

Red beans and rice--almost impossible to fail!
Oh please - do tell! I make pathetic red beans and rice. How can I get a delicious red sauce?
Hey, I'm from New Orleans originally, do you want my red beans & rice recipe (along with the steps in order to make them nice and thick)?

Re: COVID-19: Wearing a CPAP full face mask outside in the day?

I'm doing my own thing.

You can't tell me what to do, Palerider. Hey, can someone help me up?...this is kinda heavy.
