I just got a M series auto with CFLEX on Monday. It makes a different "noise" than my prior machine, a Resmed S8 elite. There is a distinct Darth Vader sound while breathing on my new machine.

I have read about those quite a bit here, how many hoops need to be jumped to get the insurance to cover? How willing in general are doctors to make the prescription? Should I just come out and ask now or play the game with both Dr and Insurance to build up the case for a APAP (my machine is rental ...

My question is, my wife told me this morning, that she can still hear me snoring (basically, it was still waking her up at times even ...
