Thanks so much for all the fast responses. You guys are the bestest!!

I have a dear friend that has recently been diagnosed with SA. He is a BIG time stomach sleeper.

What are his options besides surgery?

Thanks for all of your help

The blue lights on the M Series doesn't bother my husband or I. The machine itself is very quiet.

Just my opinion.

Thanks ladies! My hubby wears a chin strap but woke up yesterday with his nostril's on "fire". Along with getting him the Ayr gel for his nose and pillows I am considering maybe he needs to tape also. He is also a deep sleeper and doesn't wake up if his mouth opens.

Thanks!!!!
