Re: packing a machine with no case

Separate the humidifier unit; wrap each part in clean towels, t-shirts, or whatever. Place in clean box or suitcase, padding with more fabrics, etc. Label clearly, and carry in a safe place. Agree with the frog. I do this when packing my machine in my checked case for a flight, seeing as most cases...

Re: Fired My Sleep Doctor

People that are giving out bad advice should be knocked back into their gopher holes. It can be very difficult for newbies to separate the chaff from the grain. I'm sure the newbies will be fine. It seems you are having more of a hard time in not being able to moderate someone else's internet forum

Re: Whistling sound

but you described the whistling at the joint between humidifier chamber and machine No I didn't not, I never mentioned anything about a joint between the machine and humidifier. I tracked it down to the humidifier tank seal. i.e. the seal between the chamber lid and the chamber base, no mention of ...

Re: Dry mouth problems

Dry mouth could be a sign that you are mouth breathing during the night. This is a very common problem with those not using a full face mask. You can download and use the free sleepyhead software to monitor you therapy and in this case your leak rate. If you are mouth breathing then a chin strap can...

Re: Power Supply Travelling - Canada/US to UK

You will likely have a problem purchasing distilled water in the UK for your humidifier.
If you have family/friends in the UK then you might want to get then to go to "Boots" pharmacy and pre order some because it is not normally available in store.

Re: Best CPAP Machine

What's the best auto-CPAP machine? I believe I'm eligible for a new machine since I've had my machine for over 5 years. I left a message for my doctor to order a new machine. When using CPAP, my AHI ranges from about 3-10. Increasing the pressure doesn't lower the AHI. Thanks for your help. You can...
