[quote="wpinef"]call your airline and ask if they can provide power. I am fly ]

Let's assume I can't.

What do most of you folks do?

At least I'm in an upright position which should be to my advantage, no?

Hopping On A Plane

I'm off to Maui (yea!) Will be my first plane trip, though, after being diagnosed with severe sleep apnea. I have had much success with CPAP and sleep like a baby with it. But, on a seven hour red-eye, I am a bit concerned about dozing off and waking up in an apnea choking frenzy. Any advice on how ...

Remember that the ++++++++++++++ Thanks. First night was a good one. By the morning, though, I was "ready" to take it off! But it felt good. Almost, like "not there" until I rolled over once or twice. There is something in the instructions to the effect (regarding the bellows) of "not enough" and "t...

You know, I thought of that. A little velcrow should hold it in place.

wear a Respironics ++++++++++= Hi. Thanks. I have liked the mask for some reasons, but lately it's just been bugging me. It's an "awareness" problem. IOW, I become "aware" of it too often. I'm now waking up three, four and five times a night, "aware of it" for one reason or another. Itchy nose, tube...

the folks from Respironics +++++++++++++++++++++ Well, I get "ONE" more exchange from my sleep study place on the mask, before I'm done with my 30 day trial. They only carry Respironics. I now have a comfort gel (small) and I'm not entirely happy with it. If you had to have a Resprionics mask beside...

Mirage Activa Sizing

After reading all the positive posts, I figured I'd take a $100 gamble (gulp) and try this mask. I'm having a bit of a wrestling match with the one I got at the clinic (Respironics Comfort Getl) and feel the need to at least try something else. Question is, sizing. With the comfort gel, I'm wearing ...

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Thanks.

I'll just feel better with a new one. I'm sure it would be okay used, but it's a quirk I don't mind paying a few extra $$ for.

Thanks.

But the idea of _even_ slightly used makes me a bit nervous.

I'll take a look, though...........

Of course, YMMV. +++++++++++++= I know the MMV, but as many people have been giving good feedback on this mask, I'm thinking it's worth a shot at it. Of course, a $100 gamble is "what it is," though, and I understand that. I've just been sitting back and taking it all in, and this mask seems to get ...

ComfortGel™ Nasal Mask (Kindof Long)

Hello ya'll... New to CPAP (3 days) and lovin' it. I am having NO problems with the machine, and sleeping like a baby! Only problem is (common, I guess) with the mask. I think it (see subject) is supposed to be a good one, but I'm just not being able to adjust it so that it does not irritate me in o...
