No insurance, in need of machine please

Post by driegler » Sun Jul 15, 2012 3:40 pm

I am new to this forum, but glad to see all the information on here. I have just went through a bunch of difficult times and just got back to work. My machine just took a crap and I have never been without it. My sleep apnea is quite severe. I have a Remstarauto A-flex M series. It is beeping that it needs service. Of course I have not had a sleep study in a few years but am still having great results with this machine until now. If anyone has a used or new machine they can sell me I am very interested and in need. My insurance doesnt start for 5 months and 3 weeks....... I am not a charity case, just wanting to not have to go bk over a new machine. Thanks for your conciderations.

If you don't get a reply here, try Craigslist for your city. I always see machines there for $100+

Never thought of that, I will give it a try, thank you.

Can you not try and see if a DME can fix it for a fee?

I second the Craigslist suggestion. I bought a gently used PR S1 Auto BiPap for a very reasonable price from Craigslist.
