A year here....

Post by goose » Sat Mar 15, 2008 7:46 pm

Well I had my one year anniversary on the forum on Tuesday and missed it ......

Typical, I was just answering a post and realized it's the 15th already.....Nothing wrong with my power of observation

It's been a great year. I definitely want to thank everyone who has helped me deal with this whole thing, though I have to admit, I was very anxious to get started -- I only hope that I can give back what I've received. I won't mention names because I'll miss some, but you all know who you are!!!

Maybe one of these days I'll check how many hours is on my machine. Except for one night when I didn't have power I've been 100% compliant and my AHI is averaging about 2.5 at pressure of 10cm H2O.....

Next anniversary is June 5th, which will be a year on the hose....

Thanks again to all
take care
cheers
goose

Congrats Goose on your Anniversary.

We all sleep better with a little help from our friends. Glad I found the hose connection to my brain fog.

Wishing you many more years of peaceful, restful sleep.

Karen
