Kevin Mitnick P.E. posted:as the article states, his only problem is snoring and using cpap is optional. he took the mask off because it was uncomfortable and he would prefer to use a mask he doesn't have yet. his health insurer, who he pays premiums to for many things including marriage quality, is ratfucking him by making his wife eject him to the couch. the problem is the loving ridiculous system y'all live under. That's the problem.

uncurable mlady posted:i was under the impression the rise in cpap usage was connected to obesity. i suppose cpap machines are cheaper than bariatric surgery, but the latter seems like the better investment long-term. better diagnosis is a thing; weight affects severity but your tongue being big is independent of weight

they've had bariatric surgery patients fail to even make it out of the hospital before needing to go back into surgery because they immediately violated the dietary rules and about killed themselves like removing a bucket worth of fried chicken from their blown stomach their families are total enablers as well

hospitals aren't max security prisons and they aren't going to be able to strip search family members bringing a "snack" in for their "starving" family member because those mean medical people won't just let them have a "little treat" can't they see they're suffering, just such heartless doctors!

people do drugs in their recovery room, people gently caress in post-surgical, plenty of people are constantly non-compliant with post-surgical care and these are adult human beings the only people that get a pass are the ones that are just so drugged up they're tripping out of their minds

She'd much rather work with heavily abused children or murders or arsonists than eating disorder folk.

I'm "first spot available", and if that means I have to walk 100 feet more, whatever. If I'm on my bike chances are I'm locked up right next to the door
