Ok.. I just called my DME, and I will be picking up a nasal mask and using that till this heals. Hope it heals fast because I really love the nasal pillows! Thanks everyone for your answers!

Ok Thank you.. I will call them and see if they can lend me one. Appreciate the answers everyone!

Ok, Thanks for the info. I will buy some and try it. But does anyone know if I should stop using the pillows until this heals?

Hi Everyone, I have been using the nasal pillows for her for a couple of months now and I LOVE the nasal pillows. But now I have a sore inside my nostril and it isn't healing. I have been sleeping with the nasal pillows with this sore, but it isn't healing and I think it is the pillow that gave me t...

Well, I slept without it last night.. Wish I did sleep with it now!! I am soo tired.. Do not think I slept too well. Not to mention, one night without the humidifier.. My nose was all stuffy again when I woke up! I will sleep with it tonight I think.. I sure did miss it last night!

Thank you for your answers. My pressure is 10 on my machine. I just get the answering service when I call the dentist... so I just might have to not use the CPAP tonight. I do have a tendency to mouth breathe. Although I have been keeping my mouth shut I am pretty sure because I do not wake up with ...

Hi.. I have a question about using the CPAP after having some dental work done today. I forgot to ask my dentist these questions. Maybe some of you have been through this already. I had an extraction and a root canal done. My question is.. should I use the CPAP for the first couple of nights after t...

Thank you Jankitz for the blog about fitting the Swift FX. I just got mine yesterday. Slept with it last night. I really liked it. But I am glad I read your blog because I think I might have had it to tight. Really sad that DMEs do not give better fitting instructions. I am headed to bed now to try ...

So Looser is better then tighter? I just got a swift FX for her today. tonight will be my first time using in.. so I am trying to get some tips to using it before I go to bed. I used to have a full face mask.. but I kept having leaks into my eyes and it is just too hot having all of that mask on my ...

I was having the same trouble with the leaks into the eyes. Last night was probably my worst night since I have gotten the CPAP almost 3 months ago. I finally got fed up with it and called the DME and told them I really need a new mask, the full face mask was too hot for the summer, not to mention i...

I have had the same problem. I used to get up to go to the bathroom 2 to 3 times a night. After I started the CPAP in May, I was shocked I did not get up to run to the bathroom during the night anymore! Told myself, CPAP isnt so bad if it stopped the trips to the bathroom! I didnt realize also that ...

After having a CPAP and finding out I have been taking my mask off at night, really makes me wonder what else I have done at night while asleep LOL

LOL but I didnt turn my machine off and I didnt put it away.. maybe I was getting ready to clean it LOL who knows.. I blamed my hubby and said he did it!

I do not take my mask off everynight, but I have about 4 times since I started using my CPAP. I started about 2 months ago. What is really strange though, is I took my mask off last night. I do not even remember doing it. But when I took the mask off, I even took it apart! I woke up realizing I was ...

Thank you Pugys for the good explanation. It does make sense too!
