Hi Everyone, I had to switch from the Extra Small (XS) to the Small nasal pillows and have a few of the XS left over. If anyone would like them I'd be happy to mail them for free. First person to respond, gets them.

Like Bobby 269, if my AHI goes to over 2.0 I too get morning headaches.

I had the same problem adjusting to the Swift FX mask. Fortunately I have an adjustable bed & eventually got used to sleeping on my back with the head & legs raised. Quite comfy, and a lot like a recliner. When I stay the night at my brother's house, I always sleep on his recliner. I much prefer it ...

I love my Swift FX mask. Minimally invasive & extremely comfortable. I've used it since day one on the CPAP & of course, like anything, it took some adjustment, but I love it.

What my DME provider said is that now you have to state why you need the new supply. Also I used to get a 3 month supply & only had to call my DME and leave a message of what I needed. Now I have to fax in a list with the item & the reason why I need it for each & every item every month. Medicare wa...

I use Dawn Dish-washing liquid. It's what my DME recommended and seems to work well. Yes, a bit of clean dishes smell but I only notice it the first night after washing everything and only for a few minutes. Been using it for a year without any problems.

Hi, I am about to order my first supplies under the new Medicare rules, where you have to explain why you need the supplies. I was just wondering if anyone has had problems or denials from Medicare. Any special wording that works better than others? Just curious because I can't afford to get stuck w...

Loving how my numbers are doing. Currently I have the pressure a little higher because I am using a bacteria filter. Current pressure settings are Max/Min 16/12.5 Auto 2. Unless something weird happens I'm pretty happy with everything as it stands at this point. Tried going on straight CPAP and that...

Straight cpap didn't work well for me at all. So now I am back to auto with pressure Max/Min 16/12.5 Auto 3. No ramp up, don't need it.

Kohkie - You talked me into it . I'm going to get those filters. You are correct, the white fine particle filter does advertise HEPA. I too get a clogged nose alot of times and it could be the allergens that could make it through the fine dust filter. Thanks for the tip! I have a manometer so I can...

Pretty sure I posted here a short time after getting on CPAP so this is basically an update 8 months down the road. I started on CPAP on November 20, 2012. There was an immediate euphoria at finding that I didn't feel the way I did because I was OLD, I felt the way I did because I had severe sleep a...

I understand your skepticism, but it's my understanding that finding polyps that could become cancerous before they get to that stage, and removing them, reduces the risk of developing difficult-to-treat colon cancer. I don't like these procedures but must admit that I've had several polyps removed...

Welcome Aboard! I too am fairly new to the forum. I was diagnosed with severe sleep apnea 3 and a half months ago and put on a CPAP a week later, just before Thanksgiving. Since then I spend as much time as possible in the forum learning from the old-timers. I have learned how to: Find the clinical ...

I took distilled water with me when I went away for a along weekend.
