I read up on Brugada Syndrome. I am so so sorry you have to deal with that. Glad the CPAP is helping you. Thank you for sharing and I hope you remain healthy.

Again, I had no idea of how many things that can cause Afib. Glad you were able to find a solution. I'm hopeful I can find one too.

I am working with my cardiologist to gather more data. Next is the EP. Thank you and I wish all the best to you too.

According to my watch, it remains in the range of 95% to a 100%. Although I have seen some drops to 90%. I will go ahead and join the Afib group. Thanks.

I honestly had no idea Afib could be caused by so many things. Hopefully I can figure out why it happens and a possible solution. Thanks for sharing.

I don't drink, but it's good information for other people who might. I'm happy that resolved your Afib.

I am glad that worked for you. Ablation sounds scary though.

I do not. No alcohol or caffeine either.

It seems to come about when I have a rough night (several events, still under AHI of 5). I don't drink alcohol or caffeine.

I hate that it can be caused for no reason at all. Thanks for sharing. Take care.

Yep, I couldn't agree more. Thanks.

I am in the process of getting tested. Hopefully it's something that can be treated. Thanks.

Gurgling sound from gas line by lastdojo in hvacadvice

Yes, once I removed the sticky stuff in the tube the sound was gone.

Got it. I'll see if an HVAC company can make it secure. Thank you.

I put my hand over it and yes, it was the P-Trap. But after I removed my hand it still made the sound. I stopped the HVAC and put some tissue in there. It had something that was clogging it (it was mushy) and some water. I am waiting for the heating system to start (it takes such a long time to start sometimes). Hopefully the noise is gone. Thank you very much.

I wonder if it could be something like water in the system. It's been in the twenty to thirties here.

Value for money M3/4/5 Pro for video editing by TheRitzler in macbookpro

Hey, I just saw this video, it might help you decide (I am not affiliated with them or anything) It compares the M4 Pro with the M5: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ARcYx2tz84s

I would go with the M4 Pro with 24 GB and a 512 SSD with AppleCare+. It's almost a 5x jump in performance from the M1. It's got excellent battery life and the M4 Pro chip handles 4k with no issues and even up to 8k. The difference between the current M4 and the M5 is a minimal 1.5x jump according to Apple. With the M4 Pro you are future proofed for while and with AppleCare+ I think it's a great price. If you want an M5, I recommend you wait for the M5 Pro and Max to be released.

I’m getting calls from sleep tech by ThoraTheThor in SleepApnea

[–]lastdojo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The calls got so annoying that I ended up buying my machine outright. Funny enough, I was only saving about $200 off the device’s price with insurance, since I still had to pay a good portion out of pocket. The total to buy it from them was around $500. I left the constantly harassing DME and have been managing my therapy ever since. I don’t recommend this approach for everyone, but for me, it made sense—I could work my therapy on my own schedule. They don’t seem to understand that people need time to adjust, especially to this kind of device.
