Struggling today
I'm really struggling this morning, can't seem to stop crying and I have to go to work in 15 minutes. Dad is stable and oxygen requirement 50% but I'm finding it difficult that after a really good week last week where he was on cpap mode and waking up, he is now fully sedated, with paralysing agents

My motivation
Going back to the beginning. I need to lose at least 4 stones to be healthy. My motivation is hoping that doing that gets me off my cpap machine which I have to sleep. My other motivation getting healthier so it’s easier for me to conceive.

D.N.R Interesting post, what are your thoughts?
U.K Only If, at any stage, you feel pressured into agreeing to sign a DNR statement, refuse.

My question is to anyone who has apnea did you have

AFIB free from CPAP and ASD
Since we're talking recovery, I'd like to offer my experience. I presented with bradycardia and Afib in June 2016. I got an emergency pacemaker for the bradycardia. I then tried various meds for afib, none of which worked. I went to Dr. Huang at U of Rochester. After an ultrasound, he said to go

Easter is coming
As I reach the end of week one with Easter looming I was reminded today of Jesus’ struggle to the peak of Golgotha in his crown of thorns and crucifix on his back as I similarly dragged my Adidas cap and iPhone to the top of the gruelling Crowborough Beacon. I guess I slightly had the upper hand, since

PLEASE try not call GP's - Use the surgery website
Many people have not received a shielding letter and are confused whether or not they should be as think they should. If you are not on regular steroid tablets OR have not had regular admissions to hospital you will NOT be getting the NHS letter. The Asthma UK guidance is clear on this it says you have

CPAP machineto help breathing with coronavirus
I’m new here.. I’m over 70 with reduced lung capacity/pulmonary hypertension. Worried about the effects of covid19 I wonder if there would be any benefit in using my CPAP machine to assist my breathing if I get the virus. The CPAP machine is to prevent sleep apnoea and just pumps air (not oxygen) into
