Flying with cpapa
Hello everyone, I have not posted for a long time. I lost my husband of 45 years on Sept 10th 2008 and am having a very hard time dealing with living without him. So I have decided to take my 13 yr old granddaughter on a trip to Mount Rushmore to hopefully start living again. I have not flown for ov...

Re: Diminished Lung function need Bi-pap ?
Just to update what has happened. I do NOT have COPD. That was good news! The cardioversion went good and heart is now beating normally. I will be on medications always to control the rhythm and blood thinners, but I can take that. I saw my sleep doctor and he did not think a bipap would help my nig...

Diminished Lung function need Bi-pap ?
I was told Friday by my heart doctor that I have a 78% lung usage. I will be going back tuesday for more testing for COPD. My question is do I need a bi-pap instead of my auto. I have been noticing for the last year that I wake up in the mornings feeling very congested and it takes me the better par...

I don't get into they fray often but gotta weigh in here. bearimdr, I am glad you are not my RT! With an attitude like yours, many apnea sufferers will be bullied into thinking they have no control over their treatment. That is a bunch of poppy-cock! I am a 60 yr old grandmother and I am very active...

I have also been using the nose protector by Pad-A-Cheek for almost 2 weeks, but with some very good results. I have been using it on a F/P 407 nasal mask. The protector fits this mask the same way as on the ff mask. Pros: 1.The protector is made of very soft flannel and feels very comfortable on th...

linuxgrl, Thanks for the link. It looks like it will do the trick and it says it is sold at Target so I will check to see if they have in stock. If not I can order it. Are you able to maintain a good seal when using it? Chris61, I have not considered the dental devices for my apnea. I have read some...

Dental Guard for night use.
My dentist wants to make me a dental guard to wear at night. Since cpap, I have begun to clinch my teeth at night to the point that I now have a loose tooth. She says she does not know what affect wearing the guard will have on my ability to get a good mouth seal. I do not mouth breath, but am appar...

Karen, Received mine yesterday and used it on the F/P 407 last night. All I can say is WOW! Made a huge difference in not only the bridge of my nose but also the forehead piece. The flannel is so much more comfortable than the silicone on your nose and forehead. Will continue to use and give another...

Slinky, between the 2 do you have a preference? I had a PB 420E and did not like it at all so I have always wondered if a ResMed would work for me. Snoredog, Am I understanding you correctly in that the ResMed machines eleminate hyponeas before they happen? Can you eleborate more? I have mostly hypo...

Stevoreno, I use a fan every night for back ground noise. I had another PSG a few months ago and asked if I could bring my fan. They said that they have fans in every room for their patients and that it was a common question. Apparently alot of people use fans for noise. So... don't be hesitant to a...
