Question(s) Regarding CPAP machines

I'm glad you guys had such a good experience. 90 is a pretty hefty number. In my case, I got a 5.3. Essentially, just barely positive. I haven't noticed a change, but I also know I can "cure" mine if I lost some more weight. (Lost 5lbs so far, aiming for around 30-40lbs total.)

 

One side effect is i dont need viagra anymore, lol

 

Hey, a good night's rest is great! Helps everyone get up easier in the morning! ;D

 

Well. SNI forced it on me. I'm not happy. But, I'll make for #### sure they'll pay for my re-test when I pass it. And then leave once I know it's cleared from my medical card.

Depending upon which test you take, the sleep study can range from 900-5000$.

 

my machine manufacturer suggests cleaning the mask daily.
I can see why, the oils from your face can prevent the best seal every day. I'll use all parts til I feel its time for a change.
One night without using it tells me why I should use it. As for longevity in general, someone stated it all depends on how well you take care of the unit itself. Well built but can be delicate as anything these days.

 

further with SNI they pay for everything. No out of pocket costs to the driver or potential driver. Every 6 months like clockwork to the day I get a package with new supplies of "expendables" mask, head strap, tube, seals, humidifier reservoir . For me right before I have to take my med recert I dload the data send it off to the company SNI contracts with for monitoring/supplies and within a couple days I get a emailed letter of compliance and enough recent data to satisfy the Doc.

 

The matter of whether or not they pay *may* come down to a legal thing. I'm uncertain of this, but my understanding is that if a company requires something that costs money in order to retain employment they are required to pay at least some of that cost.
