Do you use a CPAP? Well I /we received numerous calls one after the other. Finally got pizzed and answered it. Was, judging by the language, probably from China. Said she was from MEDICARE and did I get my CPAP stuff. Medicare doesn't send equipment or supplies. Be Careful!

Just yesterday got home and on the answering machine had a message, we won 8 million dollars plus a new car all we had to do was press 1 and call this number. Just delete the message. Hope I did the right thing

I was using a CPAP for awhile and I found out the little donut pillows that rest against your nose are quite unhealthy for you and the makers of these products know this but it’s all about revenue…,I’ve decided not to use the CPAP ever again … if you are not sure or aware of what I am saying… please research this …. You will be quite surprised and maybe very disappointed in the medical devices that are supposed to be helping us… just sayin…..

Yes, same here, Obstructive Sleep Apnea. I have never slept without mine for about 15 years, saved my life. Only a couple time when we lost power so had to snooze in my easy chair. Finally fixed that, a few years ago I bought a 22 KW generator to power the whole house.

I have had one for about 20 years, I just clean the nose piece often. I may not get any more sleep, but I feel more rested after using it!

I have an Oxygen concentrator and plug in the O2 at the outlet of the CPAP. Actually I have had mine since about 2000. In the sleep study at the Hospital I was informed by them I stop breathing 40 times an hour.
