Hello fellow members

Just wanted to drop a note and say hi, just joined the forum.

I was diagnosed with OSA just over a month ago. I just finished my 30 day cpap analysis therapy today and picked up my machines (yes, plural.. Thank you work group insurance and provincial health program).

Looking forward to talking to everyone on here, and learning from everyone else.

Thanks

Jeremy

Advanced funeral planning. When you give up CPAP, you'll probably need it.

Welcome to the forum, Jeremy!! I would say that being given two machines to start off with is very unusual Congratulations!! You have a travel/back-up machine.

Welcome to the forum Jeremy. There are a couple of posters on the forum from Winterpeg too, so keep watching. I lived there for 6 years and my son is on his second tour of duty there.

Hi Jeremy.
Welcome to our world-wide hosehead club! Did you get the CPAP machine and a separate humidifier? Please fill in your profile with text (not pictures) of your equipment so the nice people here can help you when you need help. There are some people very familiar with certain machines.
Pleasant dreams.
