What next?...thank you for responding

Post by Marlow1968 » Tue Mar 08, 2011 3:52 pm

Im so grateful for the responses, I am using a resmed full nasal/mouth mask my pressure setting is logged at 18 by the lung function nurse, she says it needs to be this high due to my severity.
My cpap machine is also resmed auto set spirit 11. They won't issue a humidifier until I can cope with more than 2hours a night.

Marlow's original thread was here: viewtopic/t61319/What-nextdesperate.html

Marlow, you can "reply" to your own threads, and once, you've registered, as you just have, you can also edit your subject heading.

It would be better to have all the info in one thread -- can you tell us which of the two you prefer?

Welcome to the forum.

They won't give you the humidifier until you use it successfully? That is total BS. It is the humidifier that makes or breaks it for many people that is why they added a humidifier! It helps the therapy by keeping a higher level of moisture (and warmer air) for your nasal passages thereby for most people increasing the comfort.

Also like the others I suggest you wear it watching a tv show you really like so you get used to the feel of the mask.
