Do you mean Soyala Full Face or the Nasal mask?

(Figured I'd just clarify right out the gate.)

I was just checking out the weather for a few of the places I used to live. Brrrrrr.

I definitely vote new mask.

How sad...

To sum up, are there many people out there (?australians) who live outside US and purchased a CPAP machine in US I suppose I qualify, but I bought mine while I was living in the states. So I don't know about shipping and customs etc. You'll probably find this thread helpful: http://www.cpaptalk.com...

You're 100% correct. Sorry for the vagueness.

my question is by cutting off the strap section just what are you gaining, is it a more consistent fit to prevent leakage, or is it just comfort of eliminating the straps For me, I gained a MUCH more stable mask. With just the baseball cap style headgear, it moved around much more and irritated my ...

It's great to hear that you're having success with it! I get frustrated when people assume that what worked for them is the only thing that works ever period. It's a very good thing that you had a follow up sleep study as well to make sure that it really was working for you.

You're amazing.

In case people don't want to wade through 3 pages to figure out what's going on, I'll sum up the conversation and provide the formula that's used to construct these threads in the future so we can all save a little bit of time. Step 1: Propose that a given CPAP manufacturer makes overpriced crap. St...

If you don't have software or a follow up sleep study there's no way to tell for sure what's going on. It could be so many things interfering with your sleep, or it could be another health problem entirely. Do you wake up with a dry mouth? (This one is important.) The first thing I would check is th...

Perhaps you've stumbled on the cause of the trepidation.

Though it is amazing how many things sleep apnoea can do. I was watching a tv program the other day where a guy was having sex in his sleep. AHI 14. So they gave him a pill to keep him out of deeper stages of sleep. I'm sitting there going, "Uh, why not just let him breathe?" but oh well.

To me it's simple. That person is the person that the company has elected to represent themselves to you. I have enough trouble with customer service without introducing a needless language barrier. Now this is coming from the guy that worked for DirecTV on their Spanish line and Spanish is his seco...

I know I know, I haven't been around much recently. I still lurk lots, just find I usually don't have to hop in to most threads because they've already been handled beautifully. Anyway, I used Ayr gel religiously while I was living in the states. When I moved out here, I noticed that Ayr gel doesn't...
