There’s a reason why this sort of thing is managed through someone medically guiding you and that’s because it’s complex, and there is a lot that snoreRx is not suited for. Unless you feel like you have a firm physiological foundation on which to base your need for some sort of treatment, you’re really doing yourself a disservice. There’s also no harm in discussing this with your doctor either
- jrm4 3y agoAnd as someone who's dealt with the ins and outs of CPAP and sleep apnea, increasingly, I believe that reason has very little to do with safety or expertise. I'm not saying experts can't be valuable, but there's too much obvious bullshit in this space to take at face value what is supposed to be "best practices." The price fluctuations, the differing bits of information, the restrictions on who can and cannot get what without a prescruption, etc are often quite absurd (when, e.g. compared to the potential danger of MUCH other OTC stuff.) Example: that it's made condescendingly artificially difficult to adjust your own pressure in a CPAP. It's a damn fan with a release; if you're otherwise healthy, it strongly appears as if the worst possible dangers here are, your sleep will continue to suck and/or you'll fart more.
