Thanks for all the suggestions. Yes I have been trying different adjustment positions. Yes... I tried rotating the pillows. One night it was almost pain free... But other nights I get discomfort. I pretty much need to adjust it slightly every night to eliminate leaks. (My auto tends to run between 1...

I really wanted to LOVE this mask. I loved the way it stays in place without straps. I really LOVE being able to wake up without strap marks on my face! One tragic flaw for me... Unfortunately my nose is a bit to wide to fit the nasal pillows comfortably. The pillows pinch my septum so hard I can't ...

I've had both errors. One was on an extremely hot day when the sun was shining on the unit and hose. The other time was when I ran the humidifier dry during the night. They're both overtemperature errors. Neither has since recurred. I doubt they're the fault of the machine. It's a fault in the firm...

So I sent my machine back for a repair. CPAP.com told me that there was a problem with the humidifier and they replaced it under warranty. I have not had any errors or problems since.

Very interesting. I am sending my unit back on an RMA this week for a checkup. I am interested to hear what they say.

I think harry was just making a joke.

Greetings, I have been using the new ResMed S9 machine since october 2010. I have had a few issues with the Humidifier. The first problem I had was with the heated ClimateLine tube. Sometimes during the night the unit would just shut down and lock up with an error that said: "Hose failure. Replace h...

Try a Mirage Swift LT Nasal Pillow mask. It's not as cumbersome as most. It's easy to put on.

I was about 35 when I first started noticing problems with snoring. At first I tried everything BUT CPAP. I lost weight. I had Somnoplasti performed. I also had the very painful UUP surgery. They removed my uvula, tonsils and adenoids. (I do NOT recommend the surgery.) Some of these treatments helpe...

I have been sleeping with a Respironics M series Auto CPAP with A-Flex. The machine is set with a low limit of 10 cm and a high limit of 20 cm. The A-Flex is set to 3. The machine is currently averaging around 13-14 cm for treatment. I notice that sometimes the machine has a tendency to "creep" the ...

Greetings, 1. I should clarify my statement about the alarms. In record mode the unit WILL make an alarm if it falls off your finger completely. It is the min/max threshold alarms that don't work in record mode. If you put the unit in record mode and then set a threshold alarm to go off at a specifi...

Greetings, Vinegar is acid. It is also part of the chemical process used to make silicone rubber. If you don't believe me... Go to your local hardware store and buy a tube of silicone caulking. Open the tube and you will smell a strong vinegar odor. I believe that soaking your mask in vinegar will d...

Greetings, I took Niaspan for a while too. It did tend to make me feel very warm. (Flushed.) It is also very expensive! Right now I take 1500mg of "No Flush Niacin" from GNC. It is a lot less expensive than Niaspan and it does not seem to make me feel flushed. According to my blood tests... It seems...
