Good Luck From371to184! 

Lol 371, I hope you can get off the meds! 

You got this! 

I have a feeling all will be very pleased with the changes you made. Well done! 

Good luck!! will be thinking of you "hugs" 

Awesome!! I've been off diabetes meds since August.... love it! still checking glucose though just to be sure! 

Good luck on getting off (or reduced) meds!!! I've recently been messing with my own CPAP settings *cue the gasping from my horrified respiratory therapist* because the pressure that worked for me at 360 lbs is now causing some really horrible side effects at 290-ish... so I hacked into the clinical settings, changed my machine to Autoset mode and set my pressure between 12-7. After monitoring my graphs for a week, my pressure hasn't risen above an 8 at any time... I'm so hopeful that continued weight-loss will mean the end of being a hose-head (though I will miss sleeping with my head under a pillow.)  

@TomLong and @8Patty - thanks. @Chesgreen - I got it (just don't know what to do WITH it - LOL!). @Little_Red_Fox - yes, guardedly optimistic! @Cherik1 - thanks (will never turn down a hug). @Miakhatch - you're my hero-of-the-day (wanna be like you)! @Bitt1975 - you braver than me, lady... WAY braver (LOL!) 

My messages goofed up and wanted to say hey - You had a great poem the other day - Amazing -  

I found the folks at cpaptalk.com to be a great resource for taking control of my own therapy. Although... if your DME still owns the machine... that may be a horrible idea... 'luckily' I own mine.  

¡Suerte! 

Best of luck although I cannot imagine anything but great results for you! ❤️ 

I know why I liked you 371 lol going to the vet tomorrow! 

WELL.................................WHAT'S THE WORD? 

Even if you have to stay on meds(which you might) you are still on the right track. You are making things easier for your body but the meds are helping to do the job completely. The plan is not to come off meds but to get where you don't need their help. You are doing great! 

To the friday and beyond....!!!!!  

That will be really great news to hear in the near future and think of all the money and aggravation you'll save. 

Good luck!!! I'll be waiting for your good news! Now we are in the race against being medicated hahaha 

@Britt1975 - thanks, will check that out! @ClarityAnn - aren't YOU the optimist here? LOL! @8Patty - it was the beard, right? LOL! @MINE123456 - uh, you lost me there? @Sally_Forest - agreed, and thanks for that. @Judyrose1997 - so, would that make you 'Woody' and me 'Buzz'? LOL! @Draglist - (crossing fingers) @murphthesurf - ab-SO-tive-ly, pos-A-lute-ly! @bevigaby - run the race well, then!
