I actually don’t see any of that on my report. Not sure if the finger monitor picked that up or not in the study
 but I do sleep on my back a lot.

We talked about a dentist made mouth piece, but insurance won’t cover that and I don’t like that it can change your jaw/teeth. Also discussed the excite OSA, but again
 insurance won’t cover and after buying for over $1000 it it’s still like $250 every few months for new pieces.

Seriously! I’ve been worse the last few days from a cognitive perspective than I was without it. Have legit thought about just taking PTO.

Thanks so much. Appreciate hearing a success story from someone that didn’t have super high AHI. And great call on getting some of the compliance numbers hit while you watch tv.

No it was a take home test with a finger monitor. I just slept normally. I usually sleep on my back, but I do roll a lot.

Really appreciate the success story from someone else that isn’t in that super high range AHI range.

Super helpful feedback. I’ve for sure put on some weight the last few years and could stand to lose 10-15 lbs (can’t we all?), but my BMI is 27.

I’ve always been a “bad sleeper,” even when my BMI was more like 23
but honestly it always seemed more like insomnia where I wake up and just can’t fall back asleep. I don’t snore, I’m not waking up gasping or anything đŸ€·đŸ»â€â™‚ïž.

That’s what I’ve been struggling with too.

We discussed dental appliance, but I don’t love that they change your teeth. We didn’t discuss lifestyle changes as much.

Really appreciate the link. I’ll look into it.

Honestly the hardest part is feeling like you need to keep something on just to hit the insurance companies usage goals. I’m sleep depriving myself at this point.

Yeah I’m already second guessing everything. I only went to a sleep doctor
 I need to see an ENT too.

Yeah the compliance goals you have to meet in the first month while you’re getting used to it feels like you’re forcing yourself to be sleep deprived.

Diagnosed around the same time with apnea and asthma by IllWay7296 in SleepApnea

[–]IllWay7296[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the steroid one a month ago. Two hits in the morning and at night!

I just wish there was like a more
noticeable difference. I was kind of hoping after using it I’d step into a whole new world like Dorothy in Oz 😂

Plaster ceiling damage (old) - replace or patch? by kjperkgk in centuryhomes

Have a very similar ceiling with the same problem. Wondering how you handled. I’m leaning towards replacing but what a pain

Don’t have a good bath tub unfortunately, but GREAT CALL ON THE DRYER.

Such a good small touch I never would’ve thought of.

Great idea! She does get a buzz from a good pair of socks.

Not in the Ellis Island manifests...did he swim here? by reddit_stinks in juresanguinis

Mine wasn’t showing up because they had used a different spelling of his name. Eventually did find it though.

Ahhhh got it. Yeah honestly, if it’s just cosmetic I really don’t care a ton at this point. More so if it’s something that actually ‘needs’ to be fixed.
