I’ve tried sending private messages to both of you but they’re in the “outbox” and don’t appear to be sending. Will keep working on it
It says outbox until opened.

You got this. 😀

Re: Mask and headgear for small head

I forgot that the P10 has an extra small. Sounds like the starter pack which is probably a good way to go. As a side note the N30 small has a size chart. The red part is 1 3/8 inch across. It has same strap as P10 which is also adjustable. I have used the P10 as well and it is a nice mask but for me...

I think the frog wants you to cuss.

You should try it. It feels good sometimes.

about a hundred watt hours per night.
= 36.5 kw/year x $0.1283/kwh = $4.69 per year or $4.71 per leap year
hmm that’s pretty good, seeing it like that.

I think there will be slight regional differences but negligible

kwh here is closer to 13.5 cents

Re: Mask and headgear for small head

Hi, I just purchased a lot of the N30 small systems. Part no 64222. I liked that I got a break on the cost but now feel like I bought too many. I expect to have them by monday. I was going to see if anyone wanted to buy from me for far less than what they ask at dmes and online sellers. I’m not tryi...

Re: How Do I Dry Inside My CPAP Hose After Washing?

I recall this was one of the first questions I had here. I asked earnestly while the back and forth and up and down eluded my direct question. I decided later that if I wanted to dry my hose, the maskfit setting worked well and I don’t give a shit anymore if it adds a half hour of time onto the moto...

Re: Bleep Adhesive

Lynn: As far as eclipse availability, I know several people, including myself waiting on aeroflow. I was concerned early on that dme availability would be limited (not uncommon for new products in any category as production usually starts slow, then builds). It's why I sprung for the pre-sale optio...

Re: Bleep Adhesive

I honestly can't wait to participate more in this conversation and felt this might be an ok place to ask. Are you guys having trouble getting more of the bleep adhesive ports? I spoke with Aeroflow yesterday and they are on back order which is why I am unable to get my new eclipse mask. I hope you f...

Re: CPAP Supplies Last Up To 4x Longer in Austrlia per ResMed - Or Is It That Allowed Insurance Replacement Rules Differ

Curious if AU socialized medical system outlaws the “ask your doctor about x medication” type ads, full page print, and the rest of the direct to consumer marketing we have in the US. ??? Pharma spends $7-8 BILLION to market DTC but I’ve heard that where social medicine exists the DTC does not. Thos...

Re: Are There Any Decent Travel CPAPs?

One consideration for those who want to carry their pap in their carry on bag-for some smaller connecting flights they may require carry on bags be checked.

That being the case, I know for me personally, I would NOT want to be apart from my cpap.

Re: Serious issues after 25 years of CPAP

Apple watches have been out several years but single lead ECG didn’t start until version 7 about a year ago with updated ios. There’s probably a liability issue and the reason why it says it doesn’t detect heart attack etc. Unfortunately/fortunately when I feel any odd heartbeats I usually open the ...

Re: 8 legged variety or was it a centipede??

Sleeping as usual with my cpap and I felt something tickling my nose and upper liip….I’m not sure what it was but it wasn’t normal! I snatched off my mask and allowed the air to stay on hoping the”creature” would be blown away. I was so concerned about what happened that now I let the air blow whil...

Well, the Pope--not that way.
Like a stairway to Heaven--but an escalator, of course.
A-listers don't have to climb.
Thanks

Not a devout Catholic here but just enough to be superstitious about putting the Pope on the Styx.

I like the notion of an escalator.

Re: OT: Ride across The River Styx

This is weird, but when celebrities pass away at about the same time, I imagine them together in a small boat, journeying to the other side. This week, it's Barbara Walters, Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI, and Pele. Love to hear what they would be saying to one another. But not enough to ride along, th...
