Has anyone heard that Resmed will be introducing F40 fabric mask ? This could be a game changer for anyone sensitive to silicon. Does anyone have issues with the F40 causing itching to nose or mouth?

I have one for sale with 5200 hrs of use on it. Airsense 11 by resmed. let me know if you are interested.

I have been successfully using the resmed Airfit F40 for over 18 months and it has consistently given me good therapy with low ahi (under 1.5) and low leaks. I went to the new DME, and they tried to encourage me to try the Evora full face Hybrid as it has single nose opening and works better for obs...

I have been a CPAP user for almost 3 years and lately have been struggling with itching around my nose. I use a hybrid ResMed F40 Mask and it seems to be working well. I believe that the itching could be caused by a combination of the contact of the mask, possibly the liner ( I use a Pad-a-Cheek lin...

I am in need of light blocking mask that will be CPAP friendly and help with light as sometime I awaken with morning light and want to get back to sleep. Anyone have any recommendations that work with hybrid style mask ?

I have been up and down with leaks over the past two years. When I experience leaks, I usually notice them coming from the mouth, and I currently use a F40 Hybrid mask from ResMed. I have to make the mouth straps very tight to keep the mouth from leaking air. I was recently introduced to Myotape (ht...

I have been doing Myofunctional therapy for my tongue posture, jaw strength, and lip seal. It has already helped after only 1 week. I am doing exercises every day. I have also been doing the Einstein Method, which is gradual tongue strengthening over a 4-month period. Anyone find that tongue exercis...

Does anyone use a chin strap effectively? I am a mouth breather with severe nasal congestion and yet I have persisted my way through 2.5 years of CPA therapy with a therapeutic ahi of less than 2. I am already using a mouth guard for TMJ upper and lower and minimal strap with resmed air fit F40. I o...

I was told that some people use CPAP and MAD devices concurrently. Some people who have traveling and congestion issues may opt for MAD device in certain instances. I have heard though that MAD (Mandibular advancement device ) does not reduce apnea events as well as CPAP; therefore it is recommended...

The command hook said the cord bundlers hold 2 pounds on packaging. Is that strong enough for a 6 foot CPAP hose?

I recently found that I was inconvenienced to say the least by my trusty bedside companion, my CPAP hose. It lies next to me at the same height as my head and usually stays out of my way- Last night I experienced rain-out for the first time in 3 months. I also use a hose cover to insulate the hose ....

I am meeting with my TMJ dentist next week who has a lot of experience with sleep apnea as well. I am going to discuss the MAD with him and see what he thinks. My insurance will only cover one or the other and I have been successful and compliant on CPAP, so I don't know. But there are side effects ...

Yes i have had several nasal endoscopies and reveal blockage - deviated septum- I had turbinate reduction surgery which did seem to help but a recent ct scan of head and neck revealed total blockage in one nostril.

Thanks for your input—I totally agree that CPAP is the gold standard, and for me, it’s working very well. I’m consistently compliant, getting solid results most nights, and I don’t take that for granted. That said, due to some specific anatomical factors—TMJ issues, a recessed jaw, nasal blockage—I’...

I went to an evaluation by a sleep dentist, and they wanted several thousand dollars for an MAD device and some other treatments, including laser treatments and a nasal treatment to free up breathing. They don't accept my insurance, and it would be a great undertaking. I understand it would be grati...
