Everyone goes through this - listen it really really sucks at first - but give it a little while weeks maybe months and you will feel sooo much better. When I first started I was lucky to get 5 hours of sleep because of the cpap, but it felt better than normal - now I have no trouble getting 8 (sche...

It really bother me at first too, but you will get over it. One thing that really helped me is an autopap. It goes as high as 13 but only stays there if needed it helped in many areas!

Since my titration I have lost about 7% of my body weight training for a late season triathlon and having recently recieved a APAP to replace my CPAP found my average pressure is 10.3, but I was titrated at 11. Though this could just be my doctor erroring on the high side. I would be interested in t...

Posting a reply just in case someone looks in the future - it turns out it took an hour or so to register after the session was ended.

Using and extra long hose and putting it under my side of the bed seems to help buffer alot of the noise for my wife. The c-flex change in pressure sometimes bothers her too so if he has C-flex and turns it down it may also help.

I tried chapstick and awoke with the prongs almost glued to the inside of my nose - it was rather painful to remove!

First I have to thank everyone for their insistence on an APAP and ideas on what to say to the DME and doctors. Following the steps you guys set out has made much easier to get everything - I cant believe how much better this new machine is! I have the software on the way, but until then I have been...

Had tonsils and adnoids out at 15 to stop my childhood OSA. It came back!

Thanks for the replies. It is definitely the elbow. I can take the nose piece off and just plug the main hole with my finger and it blows right out of the seam where the two halves of the elbow join together. I will try to return it on monday.
Thanks!

I know that it is supposed to release air along the tube in front of the nose piece where all the holes are, but is it supposed to leak from the corner tube on top of your head?

My comfort lite 2 leaks on the inside angle of the corner/ angle peice of the hose unit above my head. Its the elbow peice that the regular hose connects too. Interestingly this is not the first time it has happened. This is the 2nd unit in 2 weeks that has done this too me. they already gave me one...

I called my sleep therapist and doctor almost every day until I got to each step. I would only go a day without talking to them. I wasnt mean, just following up to see if there was anything I needed to be doing. Its your health fight for it!

As a company owner myself I would be surprised if anyone told me. I am worried about how they are going to perform and not to sound incensitive I dont care what is wrong with them if it doesnt affect their job. If you are afraid that your job will suffer until the apnea is worked out I might mention...

Unfortunately they didnt give me a manual with my machine, but after I made the post I played around with the unit. If you hold the heat button it starts to flash and you can change it from one to five. Mine was on one so I put it on five - by 3am I was breathing water . I turned it down some to 3 a...

Any side sleepers try the papillow and like it?
Thanks!
