Re: Sticky: Phillips Respironics recent recall notice discussion thread

Someone who has inhaled VOC’s and Poisonous foam particles nightly over the course of 5+ years or 13,000+ hours you are comparing to 2 packs of cigarettes?..this is just foolish. The 13,000 hours doesn't make any points for your argument. It makes points for the opposite argument. The weight of foa...

The cost of potential medical bills from lung cancer are way higher than a new CPAP We have no idea how many, if any at all, Respironics users will develop cancer as a result of exposure. Among lifetime, heavy tobacco smokers, 23% develop lung cancer. And the risk to heavy smokers is cut in half af...

Re: Sticky: Phillips Respironics recent recall notice discussion thread

My first post. Iv’e been using one of the recalled cpap machines since 2014. I had an appointment the other day with my doc to finally upgrade to a new cpap.
