I said "relative", meaning unexpectedly lots all in recent months... apparently some have been laced with weed (whatever iteration it was) and others haven't been defined, but they hve occurred and calling someone ignorant for having seen valid news that you may not have, is uncalled for!

Happy you are moving forward! People here have plenty of great advice to help solve problems if they arise!

guys, there is a whole thread devoted to this topic-

viewtopic/t176786/OT--vaping---cbds.html?hilit=vaping

perhaps you all could take this there and leave this thread devoted to the OP and their questions?

thanks!

It's completely"called for".

You are uninformed, and spreading false information, then defending yourself by accusing others of some sort of nebulous "guilt".

Also cbd oil and vitamin E acetate is not "weed", so, once again, you're spouting potentially harmful nonsense.

Certainly, just as soon as Julie stops spouting nonsense.

OMG! Who died and made you the arbiter of all knowledge and information? Stop taking yourself so seriously and stop name calling - it would be beneath someone who really does know better, but bullies obviously don't care.

Facts are facts, Julie, no matter what you want to believe, go read the latest scientific information in the thread that zonker linked.

And while you're at it, look up what "ignorant" means....

For instance: lacking knowledge, information, or awareness about a particular thing.

Oh, go soak your head!

Not sure who died, but they didn't die from vaping.

Take the vaping stuff elsewhere, please.

Here is where the skepticism should kick in--not in diagnosis, or the prescription;
but how the prescription will be filled.
Use the weekend to familiarize yourself with the range of machines available.
Do not let the DME stick you with a machine that does not have FULL DATA.
Most of us strongly recommend an apap, as our pressure needs normally vary through the night.
A heated hose is essential if cold weather chills your nights.

I know they said I would see the data and would need an app. Can you make a few suggestions of what machines to look at. I know they are starting me on a full mask since I wouldn't keep my mouth shut while sleeping....not sure that is gonna be good or not as I am a 100% side sleeper.

Get back on topic and in case anyone doesn't understand the original topic go back and read the very first post.

it wasn't about vaping or dangers or what someone knows or doesn't know or who's a bigger ass or who got called what or is a self appointed god or not or anything else but what OP said originally.

Thread is way off topic and derailed.

No more off topic stuff or sniping or bitching or whatever....if I see it I will remove it. This is your only warning.

Don't even acknowledge this warning. Just know that enough is enough and smoke is starting to leak out of my ears. You don't want that to happen.
Take it over to the real vaping thread or create your own thread for the personal nit picking crap.
It doesn't belong here....I am fed up with along with the OP who started this thread is fed up with it.

Although I am still waiting for my machine and I am going to start on a nasal pillow, the 2 full face masks that look interesting to me are the Respironics Dreamwear FF and the Resmed Airlift F30. I started on a CPAP machine many years ago when all they had were triangle shaped masks that went over the bridge of the nose and I had always had a leak in the eye so I stopped using CPAP. That's not to say that a traditional FF wouldn't work for you. Take a look at youtube videos on either one or any that you may be interested in especially videos from the lanky lefty 27. I believe he does a full review on both masks I mentioned including side and stomach sleeping. You may have to go through a few masks to find the right one, I think i went through 3 or 4 and just said forget about it - many more options today and other devices to make it hopefully more successful. The DME I will be using said I'll have 30 days to return the mask/machine and I believe most DMEs will offer it, ask if they don't mention it.

I will be getting all my CPAP needs through Apria. Just went to their site to see what they do offer (no out of pocket for me at this time) and my brain shut done

Not sure which is full data. They offer ResMed and DreamStation but are they both full data?
Anyone who can look at above link, can you tell?

If I go with just the nasal instead of full mask, that would mean chin straps right?

This is so confusing but I want to be armed with as much info before they come out on Monday. Yes, they are coming to my house.
