Pull up some posts before this thread where you said putting everyone on ventilators wasn't a good idea.

I knew this article would bring out the armchair pulmonary experts. I think there is merit in the idea that ventilators are being overused but please don't LIE and say you knew this all along.

That actually helps.
Hot liquids for fluids and to break through that pneumanic fluid and push the virus into your stomach.

I think more people will die from being rocked to sleep on a ventilator.
You need to fight that shyt, if you lay down and sleep it FEELS better but then your lungs turn to GLASS.

SOUNDS and FEELS like rice krispies in your lungs.

No. The antibiotics and ventilator is what kills them.
Antibiotics are for bacterial infection but they do it to head off possible pneumonia but its a mistake. They need to let the fever kill the infection.
Plus the coma they induce to intubate.

Sleep Apnea Test require you to be under strict guidance and supervision. They test you on your levels and pressure towards the amount of oxygen your body is able to respond to in a normal fashion while sleeping. The monitors you are strapped to given the information of your heart rate, oxygen capacity and body's reaction to it hours at a time. If they see your heart rate or body reaction is off, they come in a ask you to use another oxygen set-up than the last. They end their study and pass it to your insurance that gives you the calculated machine that is regulated to your type.

Word. I remember when I had my sleep apnea test over ten years ago. One of the local hospitals around here has a sleep center, so my doctor told me he wanted me to spend the night there and they would monitor me. Stupid me, I looked at it like a night in a hotel. A niigga even brought his Playstation with him :russ: thinking it would be a night of rest and relaxation away from the wife and kids. Man.... First of all, it wasn't no relaxing private room. At like 9:00 they told me to get ready for bed (I don't even go to bed until like past midnight. Then they hooked me up to all the monitors, and then when I eventually did fall asleep, they would come in, wake me up to adjust something, then leave, and then I'd be trying to fall back asleep. Musta woke a niigga up like 5-6 times that night. One of the longest nights of my life. the CPAP did help greatly though, so I appreciate it. Don't think I need it anymore, but I'm so used to it I just keep using it.
