Lolol. I literally laughed out loud. Although I'm curious what mask works on that face...

RE: Help with oscar
If you have to pay out of pocket look at Supplier #2 on the suppliers list at the top of the site. They have new and slightly used machines. I purchased 1 for myself and 1 for my son. They have a year warranty and you can buy another year. They cost 799 each - one had 1month use the other 1 week.
Great machines and a very good company.

RE: Help with oscar
Keep looking at the different threads. You're certainly going to find lots of useful info. One thread alone is probably more than old Dr. McDuck's got.
And you're welcome. Just paying it forward.

RE: Help with oscar
Wait and call them. They will tell you how many hours are on the machine you want to buy. Divide by 8 to get an idea of how many day it was used. If it seems more than you want ask for another one. You can get a low hours.

RE: Help with OSCAR
Something strange happened last night. Usually i dont remember dreaming very much but last night i had several different dreams. i woke up a few times throughout the night but went back to sleep. Usually it takes me along time to fall back asleep, when i got up i was real foggy but physically i feel alittle better. Im just curious, does dreaming only occur during REM sleep? And if so,why am i still soo foggy? Does it take time for brain to heal? Attached is last nights chart. The break in chart is where me and my lady had some quick sexy time. lol. As always, any and all thoughts are greatly appreciated. the more input the better. My pressure remains the same as the night before and Cflex plus 3 is my exhale relief. Im using inflatable cerviclal collar from amazon. I like that i can adjust how much it is inflated and it does not contact my throat the way the other cervical collars do. thank you guys.

Congrats on the cleaner OSCAR data. Keep at the therapy and build a nice trend of well rested sleep and clean charts.

RE: Help with oscar
Between your soft cervical collar and a little more pressure you are looking a lot like my before and after examples in the soft cervical collar wiki. Great! It looks like you went to fixed pressure at 10.0. I had suggested auto at 9-12, but I'm not going to argue with success! Keep this up and you'll be a new man.

RE: Help with oscar
I can't thank you all enough. The cervical collar is saving my life. I just hope I start feeling better.
