    I've had mine for a month. Still not used to it. However, the little I'm able to wear it before tearing it off at night has eliminated my naps...still don't have any energy during the day. Hoping after I'm able to leave it on all night for a few nights in a row that I'll find out where that energy has been hiding! Good luck to you, and pleasant dreams!

    I can wear the full face mask all night but only if i sleep on my back which is not fun for me... So I got some nasal pillows so I could sleep on my side however the pillows hurt so I have to play with the sizes.
    Anyone have any info on Fat that accumulates in the liver (nonalcoholic fatty liver disease)? I cant find anything in Title 38
    Well my PCM got me a CPAP machine so I'm told. I guess it takes 1-2 weeks for it to clear Tricare. Cant remember if S.A. is unfitting
    Seen my NeuroSurg. on Thursday. Excited I hope to make a surg. date for my back. I cant wait to get this IDES started for real!!!

    You may want to start a log of the migraine events and before you seperate get a new copy of your medical file to make your claim for migraines through the VA. Additional 30%

    Great Idea, I think I will!
    Always go with the less invasive procedure first. The Microdiscectomy will only remove the part of the disk that is pushing on the nerve and causing the problem. I am not sure to what extent you have damage. The other benefit to this proceedure is the recovery time. The time is much less than a fusion would be.

    Agreed, I couldnt figure out why spinal fusion was the first thing out of this guys mouth. I have two buldged disc l4l5s1 DDD through-out. and annulear tears in those three discs. hense the disography.. i guess. My off base specialist never mentioned a fusion, however this on base Civ doc is... Sounds fishy to me. Thanks for the imput!

    OH yea, leg pain, however heif complaint is my lumbar.
    Discography appt soon. If the disks in my lumbar are still good I can opt for a microdisektomy if not a fusion is a must so im told thoughts
