My uncle used to do the roadside spraying, and noticed that many more people struggled with allergies when he stopped. I think that there's some smoke and potentially fire to this theory. People that do roadside spraying are subject to more pollen that a typical worker. This is pollen from the weed...

My uncle has a very interesting theory, Yeah, I used to have uncles that just made things up without evidence. :| My uncle used to do the roadside spraying, and noticed that many more people struggled with allergies when he stopped.

Rainout: You don't mention which type of equipment you're using. For machines with built in heated hose, both machine and hose have as small metal "things" on their business side. Disconnect your machine from the electricity, disconnect your hose from the machine, look for the metal connector on th...

I did allergy shots for 2.5 years and aside from swelling my arm to the point where shirts no longer fit they didn't accomplish much or anything. How long has it been since you had a consultation with a good ENT/Allergist? It is literally impossible to get a consultation here. In my position you ha...

Appreciated, I have a couple of things I can checkout tonight, I'll try and bump the t-stat up a little. My room has been a constant 18-20 every night. I do have a heated hose, I'll do what I can to ensure that it's working. My hose dips to the floor because of my proximity to the CPAP, I've got it ...

I'm usually a professional sleeper, but this week has not treated me well, I'm really beginning to connect a lot of dots since starting therapy a couple of years back. I use a Fisher & Paykel SleepStyle and nasal pads. According to the numbers on my phone last night I would have crossed over 5,000 h...

Camo,


I'm in Ontario as well. According to my doctor, you can get a copy of your reports, but it costs $$, which is lame.


Just wanted to pass along some words of encouragement. I'm new to this as well and learning as I go. You got this!!

Just two tips on side sleeping: 1.) Anchor with your feet. Don't stack your legs. If you are sleeping on your right shoulder, your left leg should extend over your right leg, that roll in the hip will make navigating to your back harder. 2.) Consider a teddy bear or pillow to hug.
