Re: Itchy behind the ears??

My headgear crosses above the tops of my ears. Nothing is covering my ears.

Re: Itchy behind the ears??

I sometimes have the same problem with itchy ears - behind and inside. I do use nasal pillows, but I've never associated the ear itching to my mask. I can feel moisture (water?) inside my ears during an itching episode. My doctor says it's probably just trapped water, but that doesn't explain the it...

Re: Is ANYONE succeeding with Encore 2.2 for PR System One?

I notice that not all of the daily reports show the waveforms - most do not. Is there a way to have waveforms show up on every day's report? I've also noticed that on one of the daily reports, the waveform didn't cover the entire time.

Re: question for Opus 360 users

Speaking of wind, my pressure is around 10 and with the Respironics PR One set on APAP and with a good seal, I can't feel the air entering my nose. It's very comfortable. I recommend the PR One and the Opus 360 mask. A great combination. Karl Hi Karl. I was wondering if you are using C-Flex or A-Fl...

I just posted a reply and noticed that it listed me as Guest. I then realized that I wasn't logged in. My mistake. It's late.

Re: Do I really need Encore Pro

My doctor doesn't have the software to read the SD cards for the PR system one machine, but he told me he'd be interested in buying it if he knew who sells it and where it could be bought. I suppose the only company that would have it for sale would be Philips Respironics. Is that correct?

Re: PR System One LCD screen back light?

I have the same machine and have found the same situation as you. There's no way that I can find to illuminate the LCD screen. I have to shine a flashlight on the screen to read it. I'm surprised that the company didn't add a back-light for the screen.

Re: Newbie would like to hear success stories, please.

I'm new to CPAP therapy. Last night was my 6th night on the machine. It was the best night so far because of a minor change I made. My mask came with the medium size pillows installed and they seemed to fit pretty good with a leak once in a while. I decided to try the large pillows last night and th...

LCD Screen on PR System One REMstar APAP

I just received the PR System One REMstar Auto CPAP Machine and have noticed that the LCD display screen is not back-lighted. It is a little dark and I sometimes have to use a flashlight to view the settings. The only thing that lights up is the humidifier icon, number settings, and the ramp button....
