Re: Anyone Sleep Better With Nasal Flushing?

NeilMEd Sinus Rinse is some good stuff. I swear I should buy stock in Neilmed. I recently had Sinuplasty surgery and I have been rinsing 3 to 6 times a day with the Sinus Rinse.

Re: Recliner sleeping

My recliner is trouble. If I recline it all the way back I can easily pass out.

Re: Dobell's Solution

NeilMed Sinus Rinse is good stuff. Walgreens usually stocks it or you can order online. I have been using this product for over 10 years. It was recommended by my ENT physician. You can get a Netipot or use a bottle that they offer. They have kits you can purchase. I rinse my sinuses once in the mor...

Re: Masks better than the Dreamwear?

I hope they are working on a Full Face Mask with the Dreamwear frame. That would be nice.

Re: DreamWear Problem

I have been using the Dreamwear as well and I was getting a soreness under the nose. It takes some adjustments and to make sure you are wearing the frame correctly. I thought I would try the Dreamwear but it is not working for me because I breath out of mouth. My primary mask is an Amara View which ...

Re: Dreamwear Pain in the nose!

Thank you for your words of wisdom Pugsy. Last night I made some adjustments with some help from my wife. It was a little better with some adjustments but I was still getting soreness on the left side of my nose. I am going to take a break from it for a day or two and then try it again with more adj...

Re: Dreamwear Pain in the nose!

Thanks for the tip. I will give that a try as far as adjusting the straps. I was about to give up on it. It just made my nose real sore.

Dreamwear Pain in the nose!

Okay I have been on the CPAP therapy for almost a week. I have been using the Amara view but I decided to try the Dreamwear. I seems to fit fine and work good. I woke up a few times because the mask was hurting my nose in the septum area and upper lip. It is a medium headgear and the medium nasal cu...

Re: leak

I have the Amara view and I have leak issues after I first put it on. It takes a little bit of adjustment for me and I am fine for the rest of the night. I am only 5 days into my therapy and I am not giving up. This is just the beginning and I am already starting to feel a little improvement.

Re: Breathing Wrong?

Do you have a humidifier with your machine? Setting the humidity level can help clear the congestion.

Re: Newbie here!

The Amara View seems to be a good mask once I have a good seal. My questions is do those Padacheek liners work for the mask as far as keep from leaking? Has anyone used the liner for the Amara View?

Re: Newbie here!

Last week Thursday I received my Resmed Airsense 10 Autoset and Amara View Mask. Thursday evening I sat down in front of the Television watching the Detroit Tigers with the Machine and mask on trying to get used how everything works and fits. I feel like Darth Vader. So it was very awkward at first....

Re: Especially for newly diagnosed - Dealing with Change

I was just diagnosed with Sleep Apnea just last Friday. Now I am waiting to get my CPAP machine. I have always struggled with change always and that article was a great read that will help me out. Thank you.
