A very rough video made to demonstrate what CPAP is and to highlight the dire need for funding for CPAP across the whole of the UK. Please sign the petition http://is.gd/mSly |

It would be awesome …
It would be awesome if you could sleep as soundly with the comfort of CPAP. Cpapman.com is my usual source and it has never failed me. I never knew I had OSA until a year ago, and snoring was like crazy with the sleepless nights. I wanted surgery but my doctors prescribed CPAP instead and I turned to cpapman.com and I have been very thankful since.
Very informative video! I’ll sign too!

@JillyB55 Thanks Jilly, I’m glad that you’re getting the treatment you need and yes, it affects women as much as men too. All the best! :o)

@bathal1 Hi! Glad …
@bathal1 Hi! Glad you like the video. My machine is a Respironics M Series BiPAP which is supplied to me and maintained by Papworth NHS Trust at £0 cost to me. Because I get it free on the NHS, I wouldn’t know what the true cost of these machines are, but I do know they’re not cheap. Purchasing CPAP on your own is not recommended as it will have to be calibrated by your consultant. All I can advise is to speak to your local Primary Care Trust. Good luck :o)

Hi, thanks for this video! I’m going to sign the petition now. Btw, which type/make your machine is? Would you recommend it? I’m in the UK and have been offered to buy a CPAP machine ‘Trend II Auto’. Apparently it’s very good (but also rather expensive: £966!). Do you have any view on this? Am I being ripped off? Also, any suggestions/recommendations, re: purchasing a CPAP would really help (I’ll have to buy a CPAP machine until the authorities are persuaded otherwise). Thanks a lot!

it’s interesting to see how other people manage. Just to let you know this is not just a male condition.. I have been using cpap for 10 years now and I am a 55 year old female… it’s not easy for me or my partner but is an essential piece of equipment. Thanks for demonstrating it so well.. I have signed the petition.

@gerard7622 The …
@gerard7622 The only person who can diagnose and ultimately prescribe a CPAP device is a qualified doctor. Using a CPAP without proper diagnosis and prescription can do more harm than good. I am no medical expert and therefore couldn’t give you any advice on an undiagnosed condition, I’m afraid.

@krakpatsboem Well, …
@krakpatsboem Well, from my experience, I still occasionally make a snoring sound. I’m not sure why though. It might just be a natural snore or it may be that I have an air leak from my mask, therefore reducing the pressure slightly.
If you are in anyway concerned, do consult your doctor. They’re the experts, not me ;o)

@nikkinphil Glad it was of some help to you. If you’re off to Papworth, you’re in great hands. It’s where I go too and they’re really good.
Good luck and here’s to many nights of good sleep from now on ;o)

Hey I would just like to say thankyou for a very informative video. I got Diagnosed with OSA 3 days ago and I am awaiting to see a specialist in cambridge. I was aware of what Sleep Apnoea was but wasn’t completely sure of the treatment and what equipment is involved. So Thankyou very much for helping me and my Family understand this better.

@vtwinbreed The humidifier I had in this video was a Fisher & Paykel model. REMStar do indeed make humidifiers that bolt on to their CPAP/BiPAP devices effectively making them one single unit. I am expecting an upgrade to this shortly :o)

I’m surprised that REM STAR has a separate humidifier, the ones we have got it built in.
