Re: I thought i was okay with this diagnosis and i am just NOT!
Mzlaura' thank you so much for starting this thread. I'm newly diagnosed too, haven't seen my doctor following my titration study. The waiting is a killer. But I have done lots of reading on this forum. I am still pretty unhappy about using a cpap, but I think I am starting to have more acceptance. ...

Re: I triple dog dare you...
Angela, are you using a national DME? I really think I want to stay far away from them... I still haven't heard back from my doctor so I'm still waiting. I researched today and think I found more preferred DMEs in my area. I'm not too far from you, I'm in the Beaumont area.

BCBS, preferred DME, and nonpreferred, oh my!
While I am waiting on my doctor to get reports and give me my scrip, I have called my insurance. We have a Blue Cross PPO plan. While it sounds like they will cover everything at 80% (I have already met this year's deductible) I am now very confused about what to do. There are apparently two preferr...
