Re: Desperate plea

Those pains could indeed be a side effect of your choleterol lowering meds. If you search http://www.mayoclinic.com for "statins" you'll find the muscle and joint pains are a common side effect of statins. O. I had this exact problem with Lipitor which is a statin and started taking COQ10 and Vitam...

Re: Air coming OUT through my eyes!

A total face mask may keep the pressure the same on both sides of the eye. This mask may have some potential for you but it does have mixed reviews. https://www.cpap.com/simple-find-cpap-products/cpap-masks/cpap-masks/total-face.html This is what I found in one of the reviews directly related to you...

Re: Feature Request for all PAP makers

Sometimes I will wake up in the middle of the night and want to see what my pressure is running at, but I have to sit up to see the display which means doing the hose dance. This leads into my open request: Could PAP manufacturers make displays that will pivot up and down like the ones on many ink ...

Re: Feature Request for all PAP makers

Well, as I'm seeing it, most people appear to be happy with the features they have and don't want anything additional.

That would be a great idea, I could then get rid of the alarm clock and have more room on the night stand, again, great idea! I wonder if the air could be pulsed some way to wake you up instead of an audible alarm?

Re: Feature Request for all PAP makers

I think the only thing anyone should do when they wake up is try to fall asleep again. Which is why I think that anything that distracts people from turning over and snuggling down for further sleep -- including anything the make pressure tracking easier - is a not a good idea. I do realize we some...

Re: titrattion (pressure ) setting

Don't they make a mask that will cover the whole face, that should keep your eye duct from leaking since the pressure will be the same on both sides. The link below is for a total face mask, it has very mixed reviews but it may be a solution. https://www.cpap.com/simple-find-cpap-products/cpap-masks...
