Re: Looking to buy a used CPAP machine if you have one to get rid of

Hmm, has she been seen by an ENT re possible nasal issues (turbinates etc) that would address the snoring? So many people think snoring is automatic with apnea, but isn't at all. My ex told me I quit breathing too, so I got tested, but results were definitive even tho' I wasn't tired in daytime. Fe...

Re: Looking to buy a used CPAP machine if you have one to get rid of

The report (or any medical ones) are hers by law, so I'd get on to the doctor's staff for it - they may require a signature, which is valid. If her AHI on testing was 6, that's a pretty low bar for ordering a cpap and I'd want to talk to her doctor some more about the rationale for getting one, plu...

Re: Looking to buy a used CPAP machine if you have one to get rid of

Great, but there's no medical info there... like what her AHI was on testing, why she wasn't prescribed an auto machine, at what pressure settings, etc. etc... At the top it says "*e/o cpap @ 6 hst: 8/5/2020 AHI: 6.1" Does that help? She doesn't have the report but is trying to get it from her doctor

Unless she's used Cpap before, it would help to know what the doctor recommended, and/or to see a copy of the sleep study here (personal info covered) so we can get an idea what's what - there are different types of machines depending on the above. Congrats on the kids! Ok good to know. Here's what...

Looking to buy a used CPAP machine if you have one to get rid of

My wife has been waiting for over 3 months and found out she has another 300+ people in front of her on the wait list. It's time to just buy one if we can. Anyone have one they'd like to sell? She's gone without throughout the last 2 months of us taking on 3 siblings for adoption. She's absolutely g...
