At first I did not like the comfort curve...it just did not seem to fit correctly. I initially tried using make-up sponge wedges on the outside of the cheek pads to make it stand out from my face more to get a seal. While this achieved a seal, they always fell out during the night. My problem was th...

Sleeplessue is correct about social security disability. The income limitations apply to Supplemental Security Income benefits only and not to Title II regular disability benefits which are based upon your earnings. To be considered disabled, you must be unable to perform any work based on your age,...

HI, I have used the nasal aire II since going on CPAP 3 months ago. It took a couple of weeks getting used to, but now I don't notice it at all at night. I still don't feel significant results from CPAP however. I notice many users complaining about noise...I have NONE. Wonder if maybe I'm not doing...

I have used both in the 3 months I have been on CPAP. I far prefer the nasal aire. It is a bit uncomfortable for the first 10-15 minutes each night but soon I don't feel it at all. Took about two weeks to get used to it. The Swift moved around too much when I turned from side to side. Good luck!!!

Although I am new to CPAP (2 months) and having rotten results, the problem is not the nasal aire II. I find it comfortable with no leak problems. I don't use the head straps at all...just fasten it tightly behind my head. My nose was sore for the first two or three days. Side sleeping and tossing a...

No, no leaks...at least I don't think so. I find the NA much more comfortable than the Swift nasal pillows the DME loaned me to use with the AutoSpiritAPAP I have on trial to see if I do,in fact need auto. They didn't have a Remstar Auto available to loan. The DME told me my NA wouldn't work with th...

nasal aire with RemStar Auto

I may finally be getting an auto machine. I don't want to give up the nasal aire prongs. Will this interface work with the RemStar Auto, or am I limited to the Puritan Bennett 420? Thanks!!!

3 weeks in...no better. Thoughts?

I began CPAP therapy 3 weeks ago using the Remstar Plus with Cflex and the nasal aire II nasal prongs. I have adapted to the prongs well and sleep through the night with no snoring. My pressure is set at 10, which they tell me resolved my apnea/hypoapnea during the titration study (albeit with a dif...
