Re: Multitudes of mask problems.

I tried the medium mask. It seems to work better. I think my humidity was too high as it actually woke me up from sleep with congestion with both nostrils completely blocked like I had a major head cold. I have an SD card on the way to use with Oscar. Will definitely need help after that as looking ...

Re: New User Feeling Lightheaded and Dizzy

Mark: I have had a similar experience. While on the couch for 4 days because if was up more than 15 mins or so I would feel swimmy headed and nauseous, I did a lot of goigling to try to fund out what could be causing it. I had a CT scan with contrast the day before it started and had wondered if it ...

Re: Multitudes of mask problems.

I think I have an airfit N301 mask? They gave me small cushions. Should I try medium? The hose goes off the top of my head. It seems to pivot pretty well when I am moving around in bed prior to going to sleep. I think it may be messing with my inner ear too. I ended up at urgent care recently and wa...

Re: Multitudes of mask problems.

What has your MD said about your cough (or do you know what it's about?)? Certainly you should not just go on with it not knowing the reason (smoking?) or where it'll end up or what to do about it, never mind how Cpap interferes with it (or vice versa). I have a neuropathic cough. I have been going...

Multitudes of mask problems.

In the 1st 30 days of starting with a cpap I have successfully made it through 1 night of mask wearing. I have a nasal pillow mask. It seems like it takes me 30 mins every night to get the holes lined up with my nostrils. I move around a lot during sleep and I think I literally sleep on my face at t...

Re: Illness from CPAP

Wait. I don't have to clean my mask with soap and water every day? Or clean all my tubing with soap and water once a week? As long as I am changing the filter and using distilled water? Because honestly I loose track of days and can't remember when I last ran soapy water through the tubes and they D...
