CPAP or APAP

Post by RobertinTX » Wed Apr 15, 2009 11:27 am

Howdy, it's been a while.. But I've got a question.
I've been on CPAP for about 15 years and haven't had any problems etc..
About 3 years ago I got my Remstar with C-Flex and love the C-Flex option..
Now I'm thinking whether an APAP with C-Flex would be as good.
I've read a lot of post here where some folks didn't like APAP etc but some did.
Since I'm paying for this myself I was just looking for opinions on whether I'd like the APAP with C-Flex or just stay with what I've got.
Thanks and like I said I'm just asking for opinions or experiences.

Everyone is different ... so until you try an APAP for yourself you won't know if it is better for you or not.

The main thing to remember is this ...

An APAP can do anything and everything a CPAP can do (APAPs can be set to wrok in CPAP mode).
A CPAP can only work in CPAP mode and never in APAP mode.

So what do you think?
President-pretender, J. Biden, said "the DNC has built the largest voter fraud organization in US history". Too bad they didn’t build the smartest voter fraud organization and got caught.

Your call......

In any case, you'd have a backup machine.
