Dr. ordered from a DME the following
No CPAP vs APAP issues for me apparently.

Since no one here can provide a valid prescription for the equipment, I don't see how they are pratcing without a license. Help groups exist every just about everything and you get out of them what you do based on a grain of salt. I'm glad you have had a great Dr. experience and had no issues with y...

Got the report.... From the Dr's office. 12 pages. came with DME order with a suprise (to me anyway) and a referal to another Dr. (I think for possible surgery options). The Suprise... a order for a Bi-Pap. Wasn't expecting that. I've had no one go over the report with me yet so I'm not sure about s...

Now I'm a bit peeved.... (you can remove the "bit" part)... Called the Dr. again today to find out why they have not sent me the study results yet... They said they got it today (I know they got it a week ago). Now they wanted me to fax over a release.... So I wait for the relase to be faxed over......

At this point, I am trying to get a copy of the report. Since the Dr didn't have access to the report, I currently have nothing. No report, no RX etc... If I had an RX, I would have just gone out and bought one and have one tomorrow (I'd pay next day air). Heck, I'd buy the machine outright and deal...

In some states like AZ, you can deduct all medical expenses even if you can't on the fed filing. If the generator is only used for providing power to the Cpap, it is 100% even if you don't have a power outage and never use it at all during the year. Somehow, I think buying a battery that will run ma...

Saw the Doctor today to go over the Sleep Study.... He didn't have it ... I contacted the Study Place which said they had faxed the info to the office the day after the study... Dr. said that when he sees it, he will order a machine via the Insurance. Said based on what I said about the study, I mos...

I had looked on the Aetna website, but counld figure out the coverages. Since I don't know what the study actually said, there was nothing to really compare. I have never seen a Sleep Doc, I was referred to the Sleep Study by my regular physician (a new one at that) so I have no idea what to expect....

To be honest, I don't know what it looked like. I didn't have my glasses on at the time and I was dead tired and a bit cranky. I'm hoping that they might have it in the report from the study. I have enough flexspending money available to cover even if they don't. I would have already just gone out a...

Last Wed, I had my sleep study. First 3 hours were typical sleep patterns for me, all over the bed and I even tried to sleep on my back with what I thought was no sleep at all. At 2am, the came in and said lets try the mask. They fit me with two different full face masks as I definately breath throu...
