Apnea in Idaho

Post by Moon » Thu May 24, 2007 9:14 am

It seems, after reading these forms, most folks replying are from the Eastern part of the country (couple from the West coast too). Is anyone else from Idaho with OSA? Or is this just a BIG city thing??? lol

Don't let the "city folk" intimidate you.....
There's more "hicks in the sticks" on this forum than some want to admit.

Yeah, you need to be near an ocean. The pull of the tides causes the tongue to collapse in the back of the throat. Our nights become hell during an ebbing spring tide.

I am in the SLC area and I visit the Idaho Falls / Shelley / Rexburg area regularly to see friends and family. I LOVE that area. How's the fishing?

Rooster, the only "Tide" we see, is in the washer. As for the fishin, its always good, even if ya dont catch anything and now the water is running high so it tough on the rivers.
We need more visitors from CA, the bears are very hungry this year...

Then there's the buffalo/bison in Yellowstone who like to play "toss the tourist" during the summer, too.

There's a number of folks from Idaho on this forum. I believe I saw a new one the other day from up in the panhandle.
