70s at the start, typically 0.0 now

This board likely saved my life. And no good deed goes unpunished, imho.

That's one for my book, on the inside flap:

Do you suffer from undiagnosed sleep apnea?

Do you feel like the brown on the ground that the hound puts down?

these high AHI figures make me thing of what is the inverse of the AHI index? number of times a person does breath an hour, or Breathing in index, breathing in more than 2 seconds, O2 > 90 .
I hope your husband gets a "nicer" personality out of it, but not so much to buy a red sports car and go hunting blondes. in any case,as you know reading here, its a serious medical condition.
what did they do in the "old days" before xPAP. (same as they did for ADHD kids, complained, got by, kicked dogs, died earlier).

The Devillibis Intellipap Auto is a small compact machine and will run on 12v. Without software you can get good data thru a website. Machine gives you a Smartcode, you put that in a website that gives info. Not as detailed as other machine but still useable. You can BUY the software module and software which will give you more detailed info. Also DeVillbis has a rep on this site that is very helpful. It is also one of the least expensive machines. And has a great 3 yr warranty
