I have made several posts asking about the 3.10 software. I am having RERAs, which is like a Hypopnea, but doesn't get counted by the machine as a Hypopnea, because it doesn't quite meet the criteria (but I do wake up enough to have my sleep severely fragmented). I have had PSGs out the wazoo, but t...

Thanks folks. I bought a six pack of the "Disposable Hypoallergenic Filters for S8". They don't look as good at filtering ans the respironics filters I am used to. So I doubled them up as per falvesjr's suggestion. This is in addition to the in-line bacteria filter I have on the output of the S8 mac...

CMorrison64: My DME says the manufacturers give you a 90 day trial period. If the mask doesn't work for you, return it and try another. I have gone through dozens of masks, and the right mask makes all the difference. My sleep center even has daytime "mask fitting" appointments, where you can try al...

I got recently got a Resmed S8 on CPAPAuction. I want to be able to review data from previous nights. Do I want the 3.07 or 3.10 software for my S8?

Can someone PM me on where to Download the software? Anything I should know about getting the Smart Card reader?

About a month ago, my DME gave me a Resmed Swift FX to try. So much better. I still get a slight burning, but a dab of petroleum based Cortisone cream once a week on the nasal prongs is enough to keep me comfortable. By the way, the Swift FX is a fantastic mask. My wife tells me it looks like I am w...

I recently switched from a Respironics M series to a Resmed S8 Autoset II. The Respironics "redesigned" humidifier was loud, but at least I could open the water container to clean it. The Resmed design does not permit a thorough scrubbing of the interior. I dump my water every morning, and I like to...

I have been on CPAP for 10+ years. I have had several CPAP machines, all of them Respironics. November 09, I had Jaw advancement surgery. I wasn't sure what to set machine to after the surgery, and I had a sleep study. I went from 19CM to 8CM. After a while, I began to wonder if the level is correct...

I have been adding a few tablespoons full of Hydrogen peroxide to my humidifier for about a year now. I figured if my Mom put it on my skinned knees as a kid, plus it has no odor (unlike chlorine or alcohol), it might work. It totally eliminates mustiness from ever developing in my humidifier. And p...

... Didn't see where you left it to soak in soap water for an hr. I spread Dawn all over my silicon parts and let sit sometimes for 4-5 hrs, then wash witha bit of friction and rinse very well. Might try that. Could be that there are some leftovers from mfg still on the silicon. Then, again, it mig...

Before anyone jumps in to give their two cents, let me say this: This is not a bad fit issue, or not enough humidity. After a few days of use, the nasal pillows for my Optilfe mask cause a severe burning sensation. This burning is as if someone treated the silicone with Vick's Vaporub or gasoline. I...

I have a basic M-series Remstar that I got last year to replace a Solo LX that I had for 6 years. I have a history of knowing when my prressure needs to be increased again. I started out at 6cm, and every 2 years, I would go up 20%. Last August, my sleep study left me at 14, but I know I need to go ...
