"In addition to that, I get nasal congestion at night a lot of the time." Hey Dude, or Dudette as the case may be. Dudette~ :D 1. see an ENT and tell them what's going on 2. or....a couple hours before bed rinse your nose with a saline solution. And then follow with an intranasal steroid. The best ...

Search the forum for "chipmunk cheeks" ....common complaint and the tongue in the roof of the mouth trick doesn't always work so great for some people. You are using a full face mask???? If so, quit fighting it and just breathe through your mouth. There's no need to block the airway with the tongue...

are cpap disinfectant/cleaning wipes safe to use Yes...safe to use but expensive and there are other alternatives that are less expensive if you want to use them that are just as safe to use. What kind of less expensive options are there? I can think of generic alcohol wipes, or stuff like lysol wi...

There's another message pinned on top of the forum, the very first message: Sticky: Newbies PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING I read that post, and reread it a dozen times or so before posting. I know things like 'is it worth it?' etc aren't real questions and I never expected anyone to answer them. I was...

There's a time and place for going on and on about how you feel - and most definitely to get sympathy, understanding, etc, but you seem to be determined to feel bad about something lifesaving that the rest of us have decided to tackle, manage and get on with, especially considering you spend more t...

For a forum that is supposed to be helpful and has pinned posts about the importance of a support team when starting cpap therapy, you're being incredibly rude and unsupportive. I thought the whole point was to have somewhere to be able to talk about my experience and struggles and ask questions. In...

How kind was it if they didn't provide you with the model you wanted? :evil: To be fair, when I saw him for the mask fit appt, he didn't have the F30i for me to try. He thought they were supposed to have them but he couldn't find any. So I assume he still didn't have them so he sent me the F30 from...

An update. So Apria wouldn’t give me a new mask, but my respiratory therapist sent me the Airfit F30 from their own stock. (I wasn't expecting this and am still really shocked at how kind that was.) Not exactly the one I wanted (I wanted the F30i) but it was better than the nasal mask thingy. So I t...

I did receive the machine. I was sent the ResMed AirSense 11, and with it a fit kit for the ResMed AirFit N20. I admit I haven't tried to use it. Because I'd been going back and forth with Apria, I thought I shouldn't, I didn't know if I'd have to return them or what. No one ever explains anything o...

Background: I've been told pretty much my entire life that I snore really loudly, but it was never addressed by my doctor or anything. It was just something family would point out. I've also been told I grind my teeth (loudly) in my sleep my whole life but again nothing was ever done about it. As an...
