Re: What do I need to do start getting better results?
Pugsy asked.. Are you ever sleeping without the mask and machine on? Yes, sometimes I lie down on my bed and and "pass out" without putting my mask on or getting under the blankets (no I am not drinking alcohol) .

On a different computer a fresh Oscar installation is also saying it can't read Dream Station 2 data What do I need to do to read in curre...

Want to get rid of an old working used Cpap machine?

Re: Sleepwearver Elan velcro problem
I contacted Circadiance about Sleepweaver straps that don't hold anymore. Helen replied " It is recommended that all headgear be replaced every 6 months.
