The July 2 edition of ‘CPAP Talk-Live!’ – the unique monthly sleep apnea virtual support group – (Wednesday, July 2 from 7 – 8 pm Eastern Time) will have two interesting components:

  • “Open Mic  Night”  Anyone who has (or thinks they have) sleep disordered breathing is encouraged to post their questions on Facebook, or, if they prefer anonymity, post questions  using the cpaptalklive.com form. They can also call in during the live session hosted by National Sleep Therapy President and co-founder Eric Cohen.

Traveling, Camping, or RV’ing it? Don’t leave your CPAP therapy behind!

 

  • “Focus on Camping & Travel for CPAP Patients” --  You can take along your CPAP machine, but that can be cumbersome.  New technologies make it easier to bring along your CPAP for better sleep whether you’ll be driving,, camping, boating or flying. You may also want a travel bag that neatly packs the machine, mask, batteries, converter, hoses, etc.
