Need cpap equipment in kauai - lazydays - 06-17-2011
So I'm in Kauai and I have my machine but not my hose or mask. I found a store that can sell them but they require anprescription. My doctor has apparently quit and I can't get through to anyone at that clinic. So I'm in a world of hurt. Does anyone on Kauai know where I could get a hose and mask without a prescription?

I would try an urgent care center. Explain the issue to the doctor and they should be willing to write the script.

I've always found it better to avoid getting the clap in the first place! :oldfogey:

I edited the title, so that someone who had info might chime in, in case they couldn't figure out what lazydays was talking about. It took me a minute, but my mom uses a cpap machine, so I finally got it.

Could anyone back home FedEx yours to you? It would take a day or two or maybe three, but depending on how long you are there, it might be worth it.
Good luck, as I know how much my mom needs hers every night.

Did my original message have a funny title? I'm using my iPhone and sometimes it corrects my spelling without my noticing it. I've made many calls to my do tors office and my only choice is to pay$300 and then bill it to my insurance and pray. I took one posters advice and called my mom to express ship it to me. So I'll go two or three nights without. Guess I get to sleep on the couch. Thanks for all the advice. I guess I was hoping for a miracle. This will learn me a lesson.

I would also suggest trying a small urgent care facility. Good luck Dave/ Keep in touch.

Yep, your iPhone "corrected" cpap to clap. You can see why there might be some confusion.
Glad your mom could send you what you need.
