"hardly anything with moving parts and blowing air can be expected to be totally silent"

Unless "Made in Germany," of course.

I guess I am just not sufficiently careful. I live in Chicago, and travel fairly frequently to/from Europe (and less frequently, Asia), and have NEVER carried my machine on board, nor have I ever taken a humidifier. I have had luggage lost and thereby delayed a day or two, and just didn't consider i...

Sorry about the guest thing.

Posting a photoshop job of the president made to look like Adolf Hitler.

This requires an explanation?

Dgrendahl, I must say, I find your avatar highly offensive.

It is a free country, and you are free to post it if the moderator has no objection, but I am also free to post my feelings on the subject.

I have three machines, two of which are on the shelf - use my M-Series Pro every night and when traveling; old tank and a basic small machine are backups.

I travel in the U.S., Europe, and Asia, and never do anything but leave the machine, hose, and mask out in the open, and I've never had a problem.

The clumsy maid thing makes me think twice, though.

Reminds me of my sleep study results, which were followed by strong resistance to CPAP therapy.

Don't make the mistake I did - go for it, right away.

Tolerating the therapy is simply not that big a deal.

Best of luck.

OTC decongestants are for wimps.

<<How about from Boston Legal, "Hamba Pandba" (SP)

I looked in the "Constitution and the Bill of Rights", I never saw any Wimp's in either one. Jim>>

I'm starting to remember some things from my time in "Central Indiana."

That "wimp" remark is just plain offensive. (There are other adjectives as well.)

This therapy is troublesome enough without one's constitution being brought into question.

Thanks, Wulfman, but we were at the north end of the lake (although the air is thin enough I wouldn't be surprised if the smoke makes it up north).

<<If you have a machine that needs to be manually adjusted and you failed to do this their wouldn't be enough air pressure pushing into your airway to splint it open, hence the higher than usual AHI.>> Thanks. My machine supposedly automatically compensates for altitude, though. Something tells me t...

Thanks for the replies so far. By the way, there was nothing really different going on during the trip, other than the altitude (sadly, not even extra drink-e-poos, as I didn't feel well enough to indulge). Just checked the numbers for the last week back here at home, and sure enough, the numbers ar...

I really don't know what all the criticism of the M Series machines is all about. I've owned the Pro 2 tank and the M Series Pro, as well as a 420G for travel (which is no longer needed, since the M Series is so great to travel with). I guess we all have different sensitivities, but I find the littl...
