Guest guest Posted June 13, 2005 Report Share Posted June 13, 2005 , Welcome to the group. It's a wonderfully supportive gathering of people. When you need to vent, laugh, cry they are always here. I'm sorry to hear about the things you have to deal with. I just have RA which seems unbearable until I read all of the other things everyone else is dealing with. This place helps me stay grounded and not feel so sorry for myself. It also is a great place if you like to research all things related to your situation like I do. is the research guru if you ever have a question. One of the things you wrote caught my eye. How long have you had sleep apnea (or when did you become aware of it, rather)? One of my good family friends is a dentist/mad scientist inventor and he has spent every waking minute of the past years researching sleep apnea and inventing a device that provides a non-invasive therapy for sleep apnea and snoring. We all know how inmportant it is to our health and sanity to get a good night's sleep so our bodies can repair themselves. I can't help but wonder if some of your problems stem from the fact that you don't regenerate when you sleep because you essentially stop breathing and interrupt your sleep cycles. They have trained dentists all over the world to use their device and have also worked the system to help find a way for insurance to pay in certan instances. Anyway, if you are interested you can go to their website: http://amisleep.com/home.html or call them at 1-866-AMISNOR. Best of luck to you and welcome again.
