Re: Sticky: Phillips Respironics recent recall notice discussion thread
Hi Pugsy and group, OK do I panic at this point. I get my DreamStation from the VA. As of yesterday their answer is no answer. They are saying they see the issue and at this time use it at your own risk. They have no plan. Has anybody Doctor or DME come forth with any ideas. I'm not beating up PR. I...

Re: VA, disability, sleep apnea.
Hi, just read all of the post. As a vet with a 10% upper respiratory, I was told since my service record did not have that It was not covered. But we will give you a cpap. Back in the 60's no one hear of sleep apnea, if you snored too loud you got an elbow or a pillow thrown to wake you up. Still fi...

VA new app called Revamp
Good Day, Has anyone hears about a app that the VA is offering called REVAMP? It's suppose to let you see the results of you PAP (AHI , mask leaks, ) for one night last week and a month.

Re: Mask for African American male
Thanks everyone for your response and help. I tried the Dreamweaver, as long as I don't lay on my side it ok. But I am a side sleeper. I will look at the F30.

Re: Mask for African American male
Thanks for the help, like most African American male my nose is wide. Most of the full face mask marketed are not large enough for me. I'm sure there is a number of male or female that have this issue. Wide bridge so the top will not fit tight. Is the main thing. Lots of leaks, unless I wear it so t...

Mask for African American male
Does any company make a full face mask for an African American face? The F-20 is not to bad, but even the large is not a great fit. Don't like nasal pillows. Starting to wake up with a headache most mornings. AHI at 5.0 most of the time.

Re: AHI numbers getting higher.
Hey Pugsy, thanks for the help and all you do. I checked with my better half and found out I was sleeping more on my back. Now back on my side and my numbers are dropping. I will still raise my number a little bit.
