- Hi all,Still adjusting to the new sleep apnea diagnosis and the CPAP. It has worked well a few nights and I have felt refreshed in the AM, but one night my husband said I was flailing about screaming and trying to get it off my face. The next day,...
- Hi,I have GERD and take prescription Lansoprazole. My doctors (I have autoimmune=disorders and sleep disorders, so I have a team of doctors at George Washington University Hospital in DC.) think that my GERD causes my severe dysphagia. Anyone else...
- Hi all, The technician had me stay home today to wear it throughout the day with breaks. I told him I was nervous and he said he could tell. I wore it today with intermittent periods of time off of the machine and I felt OK for the most part.Wish...
- Hello,Has anyone experienced a bruise that will not go away? I have one on my left cheek about the size of a dime that has been hanging around for over a year at the very least - maybe longer. I had fallen down our stairs. I was not on Prednisone...
- Hi,I am new here too. I have my second sleep study next Tuesday night to test the CPAP. I was wondering if anyone else also has REM Sleep Behavior Disorder and sleep walking? Just suffered my second concussion (this one with stitches) this year...
- Hi all, I've been off Prednisone for several days, but my cheeks are still puffy. Has anyone else experienced lingering side effects?Thanks!Gabrielle

- Hello all,Has anyone had their face or the bottom of the cheeks swell? My lower cheeks are swollen. It doesn't hurt, and my husband can't notice it, but I can because it is my face.So it's not a horrible thing - just weird. That and the yellow...
- So, I failed my sleep study. I thought I was asleep the entire time overnight at the hospital, but my brain was asleep for 1.5 hours. They put me on 1 mg. clonazepam at bedtime. I am glad it is not apnea, but I hate to add another medication. I...
- Does anyone experience lethargy in the am? There are just days when I cant get out of bed even though I went to bed at my normal time. Sometimes my knees will hurt as well. When this happens, I have to call in sick, but can usually make it into...
- It dawned on me this morning that I have been angry for a year since my diagnosis of autoimmune diseases and a vascular disease. It has been eating me away. I have been angry at my supervisor (dont get me wrong he did some insensitive things in...
- Hi,I am supposed to have one next Monday. Does it hurt? I read that after the anesthesia wears off is does hurt. How long?Thanks!Gabrielle
- I am freezing right now, which is really weird, because I am usually hot. I took my temperature and it is 95.7. Anyone else get low temperatures? I usually get cold after I get the sweats from my dry mouth medicine, but I have not been monitoring...
- Does anyone get these? I do, and I usually take them out on my husband because he is the only one there. I am actually a nice person (or so I have been told), but sometimes I feel full of anger, and it is not my husbands fault. Sometimes its...
- I was updating the head of my division about the four doctors appointments I have coming up (two in September and two in October) I also have to see a speech pathologist for dysphagia. I am out of sick leave and annual leave, but I can flex: 2...
