Has anyone taken MSM supplements for inflammation ?
Friend recently suggested it to me. She said it helps for lots of inflammation and also its good for allergies.

Never give up hope
So after 8weeks on a ventilator my amazing dad has been on a step down ward for the past 5 days . It all happened so fast. I was allowed to visit last week on ICU for the first time since he was admitted. It was emotional and exciting he had lost lots of weight. He came off the cpap and a day later they

1st night CPAP... dismal failure!
Tried my best but couldn’t quite get the mask to fit as snug as the nurse yesterday. Couldn’t stop the air blowing onto my right eye and if i tightened it up it felt too restricting. Managed an hour which i suppose is a start and will experiment later. Meanwhile off to Emsworth to feed the Gulls with

Hello everyone, I really want to buy something that will record/monitor my over night oxygen levels, but i don't know what i can buy apart from an Apple watch which i just cannot afford. There must be something under £100 that i can buy even if its second hand. I use CPAP at night as i have severe

AHI on CPAP - Relation to ectopics/Afib
Sleep Apnea folks on CPAP,...Have you observed a relationship between your overnight AHI and your burden of Ectopics and/or Afib the next day? I have mild/borderline Sleep Apnea, apparently only while on my back. I am limited to a pressure of 6.5 due to severe Aerophagia (Swallowing air/gas). I've

No Sleep Thanks to Afib
Hi Folks, Just wondering what I can do about my increasing sleep deprivation and anxiety about afib. I was diagnosed in 2017 after hyperthyroidism pushed me into Afib. In 2019 I had 3 carioversions including two a week apart. In both instances I woke up middle of night heart racing and it became Afib

A bit fed up
In the context of a global pandemic I probably shouldn’t grumble, but I’m a bit down after a phone consultation with my gp this morning. My asthma was diagnosed as severe after a nasty chest infection and (mild) pneumonia around Christmas 2019. Since then I’ve accumulated medications - now on Fostair

Obstructive Sleep Aonoea or not?
Hello I have seen other posts on here that suggests people with mild obstructive sleep apnoea can be provided with CPAP. I have just been turned down by Yeovil hospital as they say I only have mild sleep apnoea and they will not provide CPAP on NHS because it is only mild. I have a SleepOn ring which

Hi all, My father is currently at a London Hospital in ICU with covid. What began with CPAP then turned into being fully sedated for over 4 weeks and even called in on the 2nd Feb as they did not think he would make it. We have had 4 calls like that! Only once where we had to go in, He seems to stabilize
