In desperate need of ASV
In desperate need of ASV
Hi everyone , I am new to the group and newly diagnosed with severe complex sleep apnea. I was initially told by the DME provider that the ASV set up would cost $800 and then $500/month!! I absolutely cannot afford this . I called them back a couple months later once I had made my deductible. They are now saying it will be $200 for set up and $150 a month until January which then it will jump back to $500 a month. I cannot afford this . I am dealing with so much cardiac anxiety that my quality of life has suffered. I developed stage 2 hypertension and I also have SLE so I'm experiencing alot of flare ups that are affecting my kidney function. I know i am not the only one suffering so please forgive the ' woe is me' vibe. I just wanted to give a short explanation of what I'm currently facing and see if any of you know of anyone who knows how or where to get an ASV. I know there are used ones for 1000-2000 which I do not have . I could make $50/month payments but since my credit is brand new care credit and affirm are denying. Is there any hope for someone in my situation? Thank you for taking the time to read this .

I may know someone who can help you. Let me contact him and see if he still has an old one that you could use.
His brother passed away a while back and was using an ASV.
I don't know if he still has it or not. I will get back to you or have him contact you via private message here.

I could maybe help with masks. Do you have trouble breathing through your nose at night which might mean a full face mask is needed or is your nose mainly clear at night where we could use some sort of nasal mask?
