I turn the machine on...at a pressure of 16 it doesn't take long to know where any leaks are. then I tighten the middle strap. the little plastic piece at the bridge of my nose ...

I started therapy last October. I used the nasal mask, because the folks that are supposed to "know better than I do" said that was best for me. I got tired of taping my mouth shut, so I decided to try a full face mask. I am stuck with the Apria/Cigna insurance combo,,, I am pretty much stuck with w...

Re: Empty humdifier.
Friday night we had nothing to do, so I went to bed about 9pm. My humidifer is on 3, I slept about 9 hours. When I went to empty the tank it was already dry. Is this bad? Usually I get about 6-6 1/2 hours, and there is always a little water left. I turned it up to 3 after I started mouth taping, it...

METAL BOX
I got a metal attache case style tool box as a gift. It would be perfect to carry my cpap and stuff. It has really good padding inside, and the interior can be reconfigured. It has a really nice shoulder strap. But I was told that carry-on bags could not be metal. Its aluminum so it could go through...
