Re: Medical grade tape to keep lips sealed

There are arguments for and against taping. I have skin issues that make it necessary to use a nasal pillow mask. Unfortunately I leak air from my mouth, so I choose to tape. I have been taping for 10 years or more with no issues. I use chapstick on my lips, and MOM on the surrounding area . I tuck ...

Re: Medical grade tape to keep lips sealed

I have taped my mouth shut for many years. I use tender skin tape 2". To avoid tearing the skin off with the tape I use a thin coat of milk of magnesia around my mouth before taping. The tape still holds but it so much easier(and less painful) to remove.

Re: Happy birthday bdp522

Thanks so much for the Birthday wishes! Even though I do stop in to read posts, I rarely post anymore. Thanks to the great members of this forum, my AHI hasn't been over 1.0 in years. I tape my mouth shut every night and use the CL2 mask. I keep busy with work, family and the guide dog foundation. W...

Re: OT, Sandy Path people

I'm on Long Island, south shore about mid point. We lost power for about 4 hours, but more than 80% of the island has no power. We had no damage to house or property, but huge amounts of damage surround us. Massive flooding, transformers exploding, huge trees blocking roads with live power line tang...

Re: How often do you change your nasal pillow?

I get over a year of use from nasal pillows. I wash weekly with dawn dishwashing liquid then soak for 5 minutes in 1 part vinegar:2 parts water. Then rinse very very well.

My mother had an attack of TGA when she was in her late 40's or early 50's. She lost all of christmas day. We realized there was a problem wh...
