- Fisher and Paykel
I ended up buying a Fisher and Paykel HC221E on the black market. As I understand it F&P sued ebay saying the aftermarket sales of their units was depressing their pricing power. Boo hoo. Medical cartel strikes again.
Now I have to adjust the pressure.
Comments after the first night of usage: Woke up and I can feel how deeply I slept. It's difficult getting accustomed to the mask but appears it will be worth it.

Notes on Kidney Stones
Research Links
- If a stone is able to make the journey through the ureter and reach the bladder, then the hard work is done, and the stone is typically passed to the outside easily through the urethra. The diameter of the urethra is four times larger than the diameter of the ureter, so typically the stone passes through without difficulty. Many patients urinate the stone to the outside without being aware that they have done so.
- The place were the ureter passes over the illiac artery can be a sticking point.
