- Thanks for being here.
Many of us do not have a positive relationship with our DME RTs. It is encouraging to hear about the good ones and the ones that go above and beyond to help patients adjust to therapy.
I have had to become very proactive in my therapy in order to be successful. I have a M series apap. Once the DME handed it over I was on my own so to speak. No follow up, etc. with them. I was able to get the software and card reader and read my own data. My family doctor -- the one that ordered the sleep test -- has admitted I know more than she does about my reports. She is well aware of my tweakings and adjustments. She, also, knows I don't do it blind and I do discuss any changes with her to get her opinion.
I think you will be a big asset to this community and do not become discouraged if some, including me, sometimes bash the system.
Again -- Welcome to the forum!!
