...and don't forget the Chapstick. As for removing the tape, everyone seems to have a different experience. I used the 2" medical paper tape and washed it off with hot water. However, some of the other members who have tried hot water don't agree. I always put Chapstick on my lips before installing ...

For me the solutions were: 1) Sore nose bridge - go to nasal pillow masks. 2) Sore inside nose - usa a lube like AyrGel or bag Balm. I have both AyrGel and Bag Balm, and for me the bag balm does a better job. I think its because of the large amount of lanolin oil in Bag Balm. I have been on CPAP or ...

Sorry if I missled you. But my son is 37 and the Automation Engineer for the same seed company I work for. He re-programmed one of our palletizing robots to shoot baskets, and I helped with the pneumatic 'kicker'. This setup was used to entertain our annual 'field show' guests. Your responses did ta...

I like my CL2 for those nights when I'm sick and tired of the
Hybrid...

I just had to share this. It's not about CPAP.
I got to help my son last week with his robot project;

I've been using the Hybrid since it's introduction. Aside from being a bit
too warm at times, it's perfect. If I'm in the mood for 'adaptive flow', I
just install a toothpick in one of the ports...

Well friends, I have been having a lot of problems lately. I sleep for a couple of hours, must get up for at least a half-hour before going back to bed. I cannot use my Hybrid anymore because my face sweats so much it moves all around. I have had so many cardiac problems at mealtime, that I had a he...

Guest, are you sure you have the latest headgear, with the grey color on the inside? I have found the velcro on the latest version to be very strong, indeed. I have used the Hybrid for exactly one year, now, and I'm starting to have some problems. My face gets very wet and the mask is slipping. My G...

I think you will find that sell.com will be moving into the Yahoo void:

Put it under the covers for about an hour. If it feels warm to the touch,
it's probably working fine. If not, have someone with a DC voltmeter
check out the power brick.

If it seems to be working, try covering it with one of those fleece hose covers. I keep mine covered.

socknitster - I see you have a bi-pap and a Hybrid. I don't think there is any better combination available to prevent trapping air in you mouth. 1) With the Hybrid, if trapping air is a problem, just leave your mouth open a bit. 2) If you're wearing the Hybrid, who can see your "unattractive puffed...

Good luck with your surgery and GET WELL SOON!!! I do hope that this will be the answer for all your problems. Please do let us all know how you make out. You'll be in my thoughts and prayers.

I must say your story sounds familiar. I could not sleep for several days in 1977. I had to see two doctors, a GP and a Phycologist. I had to re-learn how to go to sleep. I was given a 4-day supply of drugs, and a written test. I was about two-thirds through the written test, when I started feeling ...

I don't know about the "Pro", but the life expectancy of a RemStar Auto/
