Re: Do I need to turn off EPR and go CPAP?

I do make yearly appointments with my doctor, but have only seen secondary providers
in his office for the last 10+ years.
I tell them what I am doing, and they note it on my chart.
It keeps Medicare happy (or not :lol: ) and my DME sells me only what I really need.

Re: Cpap

Did you dry it out before trying to use it again?
If it still works, you dodged a bullet, although a noisy one.

I think Bluper is intelligent enough to understand I was being sarcastic--

No haiku attempt here.

Re: CPAP Class Action Lawsuit Settlement

IMO, the intent of philips' exchange process was to trap patients
into years longer of dealing with their inferior machines.
The decent thing would have been to recall their damn junk, and giving out cash refunds!
The whole stinking nightmare is appalling!

Re: CPAP Class Action Lawsuit Settlement

Whether or not there has been success depends on your definition of success.
Any outcome extending ones dependence on a mediocre company is not my idea of success.

Re: Best pillow for side sleeper

I route my hose UP, through a hose management apparatus. This allows me to use a regular pillow. We were given one of those fancy foam pillows with the cutouts, and we both found it completely useless. So glad we did not waste money on it. Even unused, the foam went to hell within a fairly short tim...

Others have either been fulfilled; or have given up in disgust.

Re: How can I lower AHI?

Just a simple test, you might try raising the minimum pressure from 4 cm. to around 12 cm. (By steps, for patient comfort) [[[The patient's provider failed to set the minimum ipap at all--lazy bozo, IMO.]]] I would leave the max EPAP where it is. Nice thing about APAP is the ability to titrate fairl...

Re: Goggles available for dry-eye CPAP users

And I believe Oasis might be a brand of products for dry eye relief.

Re: Help interpreting iMatrix resvent Data

Thank you for sharing details about a flakey machine.
Hopefully others can afford quality machines over cheap ones.

Re: Any reason Airsense 10 is waking me more than 560p

I agree that Resmed are superior machines.
I suspect your problems will vanish once you get used to the Airsense;
and you will wonder how you ever tolerated the Respironics.
