Re: Pilairo!
Well, I'm just not ready to give on the PIlairo, when I use it my AHI is between .03 and .08 so I took the headstrap off and will try the Bellario tonight! Hoping it works as I love this pillow system, just doesn't infalte enough to keep it off my upper lip which makes it too hot and uncomfortable. ...

Re: Sleeping Position - Therapy Suggestions???
I too take 600mg. of Gabapentin at night, use to take Tramadol, did nothing for the pain. I went on 1 25mg. of amitryptline to sleep though the spine, neck and leg nerve pain and it is wonderful, I don't have to constantly move due to pain, and therefore my cpap treatment has greatly improved. One o...

Re: Pilairo!
Pugsey, ' In your opinion, is there a cover type thing that can be made for the Pilairo near those clips, they seem to leave a big mark on my cheeks as even when I put the straps low on my ears the whole pillow base leaves bad marks. Perhaps my pressure set at 9.4 is not enough to inflate the pillow...

Re: Next choice -- mask?
If you decide to use a pillow mask I would say the ALOHA is a great choice. Soft, lightweight, and kind of self adjusts to the way you sleep. You can also add a chin strap if you do some mouth breathing.

Re: Does co-sleeping protect kids from obesity?
I am a big believer in the family bed! My 18 month old grandson began sleeping in his parents bed directly from the hospital due to some health issues. At 14 months his mom put him in the crib to take a shower and he fell asleep. She remained in a rocking chair in his room folding clothes etc. until...

My son in law has had a few minor set backs, but he is doing better now thanks to all your prayers. He came out of the ICU yesterday.

Re: Pilairo!
Ohhhhhh how I wish this mask worked for me. I just love the pillows, except when it doesn't inflate immediately, because I can't breathe through it with the machine off. I am not sure I'm willing to mess with it, as I had a very sore nose this morning and the clips left deep marks on my face. Of cou...
