Hi I'm new and just learned of OSCAR, can anyone spot bad trends?
My CPAP journey has been since 2013 but I didn't use it regularly after 2015. I've felt bad for years and 2 nights ago decided I'd go back to trying it. Just learned of OSCAR today.
Also, I've seen my Dr. and have a new sleep study ordered but not yet scheduled. I need to figure this out fast because I feel terrible and I'm afraid of serious adverse events in my life.
Lastly, apparently I have of the recalled Phillips machines and now I'm afraid to use it further. I can't seem to catch a break here......

RE: Hi I'm new and just learned of OSCAR, can anyone spot bad trends?
You've come to the right place. There are many good folks in here that will help you get on track. First thing is to get a good cpap type unit that will HELP and not HURT you. We dropped Phillips and everything associated with them, went to ResMed and have had nothing but excellent results since. Again with help from the board. I bought our unit brand new from a seller in Seattle WA that did not require a prescription to buy one. Came UPS in a few days, and it has proven itself to be the best. There are also some good preowned ones available through a link on the board. NEVER give up!
