Re: OT: constant cyber-harassment

Do you all not think that this has gone WAY over just discussing things in a civil manner?... "I'm going to tell my mommy/Daddy that you are being mean".........sound abot right????????? [formatting omitted] You seem to be suggesting that bullying should be allowed because opposing it with calm, ra...

Re: OT: constant cyber-harassment

Someone has decided to stop taking his meds again. Against doctors orders. He's a rebel!!! Misquoting people and everything! Let me guess. Bipolar. Have a lovely Sunday. JPB Accusing someone of mental illness in the thread about cyber harassment kind of proves some of what Jedi Mark was talking abo...

Re: Positional Therapy

isn't actually answering the question of whether my suggestion for a "full report" was reasonable, nor whether the 7 page report I received was a "full report" Now you are trying to skunk out by claiming to say one thing when you actually said another. You did not say "full report". You said "full ...

Re: Positional Therapy

that was not my intent. Ok, but I hope you can see why multiple people jumping on my post, with none of them offering any specifics about what exactly constitutes a full report, isn't actually answering the question of whether my suggestion for a "full report" was reasonable, nor whether the 7 page...

Re: Positional Therapy

erm, uh....all *I* did was post a helpful definition of weasel words. i don't get involved in technical conversations because i know squat. and it seems to me that dog slobber was doing the same, but actually taking the time to write out in words that defined the phrase weasel words. lighten up, fr...

Re: Positional Therapy

Studies show, most experts believe that weasel words are used to give a false sense of authority. Some argue that those who always use such tactics are being dishonest, but probably the most common reason is; ignorance of actual data. And a study of this thread shows that nobody so far has indicate...

Re: Positional Therapy

Weasel word It's a qualifier. If you are just out to be mean, go for it. It seems to be a thing around here. My original sleep study that I received was 7 pages long, longer than you say a summary is. So if that isn't a "relatively full report" please do give us a characterization of it, and specif...

Re: Positional Therapy

Definitely get a **full** copy of the sleep study He will never get that, and it is not necessary. I don't know what the asterisks mean, but a full copy would include flow charts, EEG, leg movements, etc. for every second of the night. The summary (a few pages at most) is often very revealing. I go...

Re: mask purchasing

Doh! That's what I get for reading too fast. Thanks for the correction.

The place I bought my Dreamwear fit kit didn't require a script. Worked out fine, though they seemed a bit dodgy.

I can PM the details if interested.

Re: Positional Therapy

Hi guys. I am only 22, but I went to the sleep clinic a few months back and my sleep doc told me I had mild sleep apnea. However, in my study I slept on my back to avoid disconnecting the various wires. I got the prescription a little while later and it said I have moderate sleep apnea. Why would t...

Re: mask purchasing

I'm looking at getting a new mask as i dislike mine. Thinking about the dreamware one. i need a full face as i'm a mouth breather but i'm also one who toss and turns and side sleeps. i thought this would maybe be a good fit. My DME (which sucks anyways) doesnt carry it. Where's a good safe place to...

Re: Forced to use Crapria (Apria)

I filed complaints against Crapria with Kaiser, Kaiser concluded Crapria was right and I was wrong and threatened to send me to collections if I didn't pay up. I paid small bills just because it was sick to death of dealing with them. And months later got refunds, because "whoops, there were billin...

I do wonder if Apria knows how terrible people think they are. I wonder if they even care.
Well, given that patients aren't their customers, insurance companies are, I'm thinking they care about as much as prisons care if the inmates like the food :-/

Re: Can this be attempted (or even actual) murder?: Burglar makes off with man's sleep apnea machine

You don't understand the "foe" list No, the foe list is very clear, and aptly named in this instance. Instead of using the foe list to ignore people he doesn't like, the way it's meant to be used, PR wants his list of perceived enemies to be added to the ignore list by everyone else as method of de...
