Aura twilight NP update

Post by Hurricane » Wed May 30, 2007 1:42 pm

Just to say received my x large nasal pillow, and found out didn't need it after all, went back to large size, used the panty hose assist, still using stock mask, and really think it will work well, thanks to all that let me to this interface. like so many have said their is a mask for everyone, some have to try many, some are lucky and find one first shot, I usually follow Murphy's law, even standing under a bird in tree, So the Aura and I are into or sleep relationship.

Yes..everyone's needs are different.

But for me the Twilight NP nasal pillow system is working great and is very comfortable.

I just got it last week and I'm already sleeping 5-6 hours per night without waking up! (Encore Pro = AHI is between 2-4 with leak rate is 30-40).

With my previous mask (Comfort Gel Nasal Mask) .. I was struggling with comfort and leaks .. I was only able to sleep 2-3 hours at a time. Usually removing mask in early morning.

As said before... I took the headgear completely off and use the Panty Hose tights (legs) to secure around my head. Stays in place all night...After I put it on for the night there is no need to re-adjust at all.

CPAP therapy started on 5/5/07.

Yeah, when I was getting my pair, this lady was looking at me like I was a perv. So, I just looked over at her, held up two, and then asked her if she knew which was more comfortable. That got her to leave me alone.
