Nothing really new that hasn't been discussed here many times before but easy to read all in one place.

Hi Dori

As you say - all there in a nutshell -

but I do wonder why they say that sleeping on your side might be beneficial (slide eight), and then show the person with a mask on sleeping on their back (slide ten). Surely a decent photo can be taken of someone wearing a mask whilst sleeping on their side.

I know I take a lovely photo when I'm sleeping on my side with my mask

Now the next thing we need, Dori, is a similar website on how to save the world from Global Warming !

cheers

Mars
for an an easier, cheaper and travel-easy sleep apnea treatment :D
