Re: Any tips to reduced dry mouth and dehydration w/ CPAP?
Funny, I was just coming on to ask about this very same question. But I'm using nasal cushions. I was wondering if I should switch to a full face mask, even though I'm positive I'm not mouth breathing. I clench my teeth so hard you'd need a screwdriver to pry them apart sometimes! I've recently star...

FOR SALE: ResMed S9 30w Travel Power Supply
I bought a 30w power supply a while back for traveling, but ended up never using it because it can not be used with a humidifier, which I need. And now I've changed machines anyway. I'd love to get it to someone who could use it. Opened but unused, in original box, with plug adapters for other coun...

Activa Mask at Low Pressure
Does anyone else use the Activa mask at a really low pressure? I am only using a 4 (although I am waiting to see the doctor about increasing it slightly) and the mask doesn't inflate at all. I wore it for a couple of hours last night, with loose straps, but it left massive deep indentations all over...

Rested Gal, so glad to hear someone *doing* what I'm *thinking*! And you're right about the pressure - it is as low as possible, and I believe my condition has worsened in the 8 months since I did my sleep study. Although my husband says I do sleep very peacefully when using the machine, I have been...

Thanks, Craig, for the reassurance. That's pretty much what I intended to do. It's nice to know you haven't keeled over from some toxic infection. It's like following the instructions for a washing machine - if I paid attention to all the details on how to sort laundry, I'd be doing each article of ...

DarthLucy, thanks for your comments. Kind of what I thought, but this whole process seems so fraught with opportunities to mess up! I'm not sure whether to ask the rep to bring a shallow and a standard, or a standard and a large. I don't know why he can't bring all three! Good luck in your search fo...

Mirage Activa - how to picka size. Also cleaning help?
Okay, my test worked, so let's try this again. I started CPAP in January, used it faithfully for a month, then quit due to constant headaches. Stopped and still have headaches... I've tried on and off since then, have bought a number of masks on my own, but always have issues with bridge-of-nose and...

I've tried posting twice and my message doesn't show up. So before I try another long missive, I'm trying this! Thanks...
