Neck brace and full face mask

I am getting ready to have cervical surgery, and while fitting and getting used to the cervical collar I will have to wear for too long it dawned on me "How am I going to get my full face mask straps around this?". Any suggestions? Thanks!!

Re: Whiny DreamStation BiPap auto

New machine...first day of use. Filling water to max seemed to help a bit, but it was about 2/3 to 3/4 full when making noise.

Re: how often to clean humidifier chamber and hose

By the way.......where's the Texas Redneck Riviera? Den The Texas Gulf Coast from Port O'Connor south (read Rockport/Port Aransas area).....God's Country.

Barbara - who promptly went home and slipped the card into the machine, before she forgot where she laid it down. I guess that's why I haven't been here in a while....forgot that the place existed until a couple of days ago. Good to hear from you and by the way, love the new(?) avatar....You still ...

Re: how often to clean humidifier chamber and hose

Been using XPaP almost 10 years now and, although not quite as ?????y as Wulfman (sorry, Den), I clean my humidifier and hose whenever I think it needs it....sometimes in a month, sometimes not for 6-8 months or more, depending on how I feel (been ill, sinus problems, etc.). Still have all of my ori...

Re: cleaning equipment

Echoing what DreamStalker said, here's what I do... Clean my mask as needed, as in when leaks multiply, with Liquid Neutrogena facial cleanser for a squeaky clean seal and disinfect hoses and humidifier every 6 mos. to a year, more often in case of illness ( which has become almost nonexistent with ...

Ignorance usually comes from not knowing what you are talking about

Re: Does anyone have annual sleep studies?

What it seems to me happened is that you had a doctor call you and ask for more money. Your machine can provide you with all the information you need to do what this forum is all about, "taking your therapy into your own hands". If you don't have a reader and software, it's time to find them and get...

Re: Checking in...finally.

Thanks for the well wishes, things are going very well (Past all the bad stuff) and am on the road to recovery through rehab. Hoping to be as fit as Carbonman soon (I wish) cause I think the fish are starting to miss me.
