    face mask for non invasive ventilatiom

    I don't know. Might be an interesting individual thing based on body size. That came from my pulmonologist though, not just something I fiddled with.

    face mask for non invasive ventilatiom

    I use the Resmed Quattro FX with my Trilogy. My favorite max pressure is 25, and tidal volume set to 780.

    Clonus vs. Tremors

    I have to very respectively disagree. Clonus is a rhythmic repetitive motion. For example, having 5 or more "beats" of ankle clonus is the criteria for being labeled as pathological. There are some examples on you tube.

    Speech Board

    Check out speakbook dot org. We use that all the time but just have my caregivers point instead of eyes. It's pretty adaptable.

    Social Security

    Ouch! I've never heard it being THAT low by anyone else that explained their short term payment. 50% was the lowest I remember. Not to state the obvious, but did you check the actual plan documents?

    Social Security

    Yes it does stink. So for your case it sounds like you will be two months of no income. Then at the two months mark, you will get 60% salary with LTD. Then at the 5 months mark SS kicks in. But if your LTD plan is like everyone else so far that has mentioned it on the forum, your LTD benefit is...
