Not so I'm a guest, don't know why my 2 previous posts, the most relevant in welcoming our LIAM back, were signed on as a guest.

It's just me, same ole Gailzee.

WELCOME BACK LIAM...GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR CHOICE OF MACHINES!! WE MISSED YOU!!

But it looks as though I will be rejoining the ranks of the blown. (No, honey, if you're reading this, I'm NOT giving away personal information about our lives again! I'm talking about an APAP).

It'll be nice to own the thing, rather than that horrid renting situation, because that way if I decide to not use it for a stretch of time, I don't feel like I'm wasting the rental on it.

I expect I'll probably do a lot of "few days on, few days off", trying to slowly increase the number of days ON the hose and decrease the number OFF. I think what killed me last time was trying too hard to be 100% compliant, and ending up completely not sleeping for days at a time. If I do an "every other night" sort of thing until I find that the nights ON are now better nights than the nights off... Maybe that'll work better.

I sure hope so!

Liam, he's back, and better than.... well, better than phlegm, but that's not saying much.

Jeez, you guys ( and gals ) are amazing fountains of information. Liam, where are these links? I don't even know what type of sleeper I am!
Sorry, I probably was confusing. I was ASKING if there were such links. Meister is the LinkMaster, I was asking him if he had any such links.

I'm not a font of knowledge or wisdom. I'm a font of wiseass comments and hose jokes.

Not nearly as good, but more apt to turn your stomach or make you groan.

Liam, who just realized his Mom didn't mean that one day he'd be a GROAN man.

When I get a chance I will post some more of those super
scientific studies done all over the world. I found the goldmine when
I called up the Sleep Apnea conference organizer and she called me
Doctor. Once I had the keys to the kingdom, I got a hold of the email
addresses of all the world's leading researchers. Now I just pretend to
be one of their colleagues, and request electronic copies of their
latest research for a "big study" which I am conducting. Since they
love to have their work "cited", they are happy to send stuff to me.

I know it might sound like a scam to you, but I learned all about scams
when I started working with my local DME.

Meister you are a very funny and inventive fella. We should have you start a research column in here once a week. Post whatever stuff you can come up with. Great reading.
