Celebrating 11 Year Anniversary Today

Post by Muse-Inc » Mon Aug 20, 2018 2:24 am

So glad new doc, at first visit, suspected sleep apnea and sent me to sleep doc for testing. Test on Aug 6, 2007; picked up equipment on the 20th. Have not gone to sleep without all my gear since. Annual average AHI is 0.1 for many years. Yeah me :lol:

Congrats! I was talking to the wife the other day and I told her I probably added 10 -15 years to my life because of cpap. Also.... these are healthy years!

Congratulations!
O soft embalmer of the still midnight,
Shutting, with careful fingers and benign,
Our gloom-pleas'd eyes, embower'd from the light,
Enshaded in forgetfulness divine
