Hi, I have used the OPUS 360 but now have the Swift LT for her and it works better for me. The OPUS pillow would usually come off the frame sometime during the night and that doesn't happen with the Swift LT. I switch between the small and medium size pillows. My DME gives me all the pillows that co...

This one suggests some kids with ADHD symptoms may have sleep apnea instead...

Adding my holiday greetings to all and my thanks!

I don't post a lot but I come here often for news, tips and sometimes just a laugh.

I know I would have given up months ago on this therapy without this board!

I usually wake up with a headache and an incredibly dry mouth. Later in the day I will struggle to keep from nodding off at work. Hard to believe I dealt with it daily for probably years...

Now if I wake up in the morning with air blowing up my nose, I know it will be a good day!

What is the recommended way to clean a used mask, as in mask roulette? Do you need to buy a special mask disinfectant?

Moby, I think I know that feeling. I am going through something similar. For years now, with OSA, I have structured my life doing everything that had to be done (work, parenting) and then once having fulfilled those "have-tos" letting everything else slide.

What improvements in treatment would be important to you? Finding my perfect mask, sleeping through the night with the mask on the whole time! 4.Would ...

Welcome Huntsman! You will find lots of great information and help on this board! I have been a hosehead for 4 months now. I had that great feeling after my sleep study - it is your body getting the first decent sleep it has had in a long time usually. Now I just notice how crappy I feel if I don't ...

Hi, I use the swift and many times wake up with my face mashed into my pillow on my stomach. I worry that the exhaust may get blocked when I am in this position. So I was wondering if a body pillow might help keep me sleeping on my side. Has anyone tried this to keep from stomach sleeping? Any recom...

All you have to do is avoid eating out (especially fast food ... if you really want to be shocked -- read the book fast food nation) and not buy any prepared foods from the grocer ... buy and eat only fresh foods and learn to cook your own. Not quite true ... I've been recording every single thing ...

I have heard this mentioned before as resulting from apnea but no real reason as to why. I found this article which is interesting: http://ajrccm.atsjournals.org/cgi/content/full/159/4/1351 This study concluded such hearing loss was not related to loud snoring. It is amazing how much is not yet know...
