Hey everyone! A Chudbud I know is in need of potentially life-saving (and definitely life-improving) medical equipment: a CPAP machine to help with sleep apnea issues. They do not have health insurance to cover the machine, so it must be bought out-of-pocket.I've set the goal at $1200, to cover the cost of the machine, taxes, shipping, and any other associated accessories that go with the machine. All funds collected will go to the Chudbud in need. If you can help out at all, it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much! https://donorbox.org/cpap-machine-for-a-chudbud

Is this a "I'm fat and lazy so I need help breathing" thing, or a "I have legitimate medical issues that doesn't include eating way too much food and need help" thing?

Lol well y'all don't give me your BMI when you sign up or anything-- but as far as I'm aware this is a "they've had breathing problems since they were a teenager and now they're in their 30s" thing

central obesity almost always causes sleep apneaBUTgetting adequate, quality sleep is essential to any sort of weight loss effort, you're not going to have the willpower to stick to any sort of exercise or diet if you're living in a fogalso long-term chronic sleep deprivation is just as bad for hardening of the arteries as high cholesterol

it's a long shot but boomers will usually part with these at estate sales and garage sales, if you get a ResMed unit like the one in your attached pic, you can google how to toggle Clinician Mode to get in and set the pressure and other settings

Two of my grandparents had it and they were both lanky and thin, but yes I know it's commonly associated with obesity. Just trying to help out a Chud in need, this is NOT something they asked me to do, I took it upon myself. If people wanna assume they're a fat black lady from California, that's fine lol.

I know professional runners who require one. Obesity can cause or exacerbate it but apnea can be caused from multiple things. Untreated it can be a massive mental and physical hindrance to losing weight. It’s also just plain deadly long term.

@chudbere Try Magnesium supplements. You might be surprised there are things your doctor doesn't know about.

So I've had sleeping problems since I was a child. My jaw is just set back a bit because of misaligned teeth that were never fixed because we were dirt poor. Ma used to get on my ass because I struggled to sleep, she thought I was misbehaving. So as an adult I discovered CPAP through doctor and sleep study and my life quality improved 10000000%. I would wake up prior, more tired than when I laid down, I was getting no sleep. I'm not obese, just bad teeth alignment did it. Minor work with retainers moved them just enough where I didn't need it anymore.
