      @Sarah hi Sarah its very nice of you to check in with me. I have been using the BIPAP for almost 6 months now and finding it really good. I feel great no more headaches or daytime sleepiness, much more energy than this time last year! I use the nostril pillows P10 Airfit I think its called and a Phillips Dreamstation. The data from the machine is amazing and it means I need a sleep study less often! My AHI is down to about 0-3 on average which is down from 72 when I started therapy a year ago. Incredible technology! Thanks to you and the other members of this forum for your support when I really needed it! How are you doing? I love all your videos! Merry Christmas and hope 2021 is better for everyone! Kind regards, Carolyn

      @Nadelle-M All the time. That is why we travel with bed extenders and also use sites like accessible accommodation and have wheelchair will travel to get feedback from other people who have stayed there. https://www.accessibleaccommodation.com.au/?gclid=EAIaIQobChMI1v__zfT46QIVy34rCh21QQKLEAAYASAAEgKmr_D_BwE, https://havewheelchairwilltravel.net/. If going somewhere it is worth asking either of those communities if someone else has been there.

      @Anthony also check out our resources here: https://mdnsw.org.au/the-peer-collective/accessing-s*x-worker-resources/
      But then I re-read your original post, and these resources won't be helpful. Sorry.

      Just a question. How do the tags and subcategories work?

      Sorry for the delay on following up. Palliative Care is a subcategory of Wellness. I created a new subcategory called Mental Health. Now I know how to add them if there's any you'd like to see, let me know.

      @Carolyn Hi Carolyn, sorry for disappearing for a while. I have an Invacare Storm. My second one of the same type just with a few more add on this time. I'd love a pedometer though. That sounds like a great thing to have.

      Hi Emma, It looks like you have created a small group for MDWA - you can use this as a place to post messages to each other that only the three of you can see depending on the privacy settings of your group.

      Hi Angela, Is this as their primary wheelchair? The cons for me when looking at these is their bulkiness and ability to get under ordinary tables etc and how much room they need to be transported. I'm a suburban wheelchair user who doesn't go off paved surfaces all that often and who has to transport my chair regularly. If those were not considerations though a all terrain would be very attractive to me. As you can swap out backrests and cushions with most of them comfort really comes down to trying a variety of set ups like any other chair. Sarah
