Sounds like a frustrated wanna-be lawyer who could not get in law school and now has to grovel for employment at the feet of lawyers the rest of his career.

More like, my life was totally destroyed by OSA and went untreated for many many years for reasons beyond my control. By the time I finally got on CPAP and recovered, my life was for all practical purposes, already over with. So I settled on the Paralegal thing. Law school was beyond my capability after what I had been through.
BTW, I was not even interested in the legal profession at all before the OSA thing. The main reason I got interested in that was the lines of bs, the insurance and DME hassles, the problems with doctors...I say sue'em all. Let God sort'em out. You can be absolutely 100% positive that any insurance company, DME, asswipe doctor or other "health professional" that I encounter in the courtroom will get every bit of my Paralegal attention.
Hell, Im lucky to even be alive.

The key to successful OSA therapy is 100% compliance, every night.

You look like 200 lbs of chewed bubble gun. Nothing wrong with fat people, its just you should be trying to lose it particularly when you are on such a drastic machine as a bipap at your age. When I was your age, I was physically active, on a Masters swim team and a bipap was the furthest thing from my mind.
Just saying, a loss of twenty pound can make a big difference in your condition and your physicians will love you for losing weight.

I'm 5' 6.5", 159lbs. with 20 years in the Army. I don't think that losing 20lbs will make a difference in my case. If anything, it would make me under weight.

Losing fifty pounds helped my OSA a lot. I bet if I lost another forty my pressures would go down more.

I am a very "newbie-newbie" to this forum. I came here looking for advice, support and a chance to vent. Not to vent at a particular person (other than myself!) or persons! It never ceases to amaze me how cruel some people can be....My personal opinion (and I know what opinions are-everybody has one!) is that this person doesn't care about "deleting" his account-he's just looking for confrontation and he's getting that from some...If he really wanted to leave, he would just leave and be done with it!
Thanks to all of you who are here to help not hurt and offend!
There-that's all I have to say right now....
P. S. I am not over weight for my height and body frame but I still have OSA.....

Well, then lose away if you think so. You never know, it just might help you. One thing that you have to remember is that not everyone who has Sleep Apnea is overweight.

But the vast majority of OSA sufferers ARE overweight and many of them are obese to morbidly obese. You aint typical.

If you really do want to delete your account, why on earth are you still posting? Why not just leave?

And, if you really want your account deleted, why not just send a message to the forum administrator? It's rather simple. Up on the right hand side, int he light blue bar, click on the word "Members". The first one to pop up is forumadmin. Click on that and you will be taken to his information. Simply send him a private message asking for your name to be removed and your account closed. I'm sure he'd be happy to help you out.
