Hipurcat:

Sure it is.

I never said compliance equals cpap nor that it equals anything except prescribed treatment. That could be anything which is designed to help.

You and I shared the same place once. No pap worked for us so the medical pros kicked us up a notch and tried another avenue to help us comply to treatment, In my case there was no time for various surgeries, it was directly to a trach for me. In your case, you were kicked up to a different type of surgery.

I am so pleased that we both have found relief with that which was designed to work for us. I share your attitude for being helped and also for the ability to leave the pap and masks behind us.

You take very good care and go straight ahead.

Phil
