Called Patrick again. We are going to try a new cushon/seal and wait a coupe weks before doing so to let my nose heal. I have not given up. Patrick and his company have phenominal customer service, and even if this does not work out I will keep my eye on their company for new products. Very few comp...

I'll need to switch back to my swift II for a couple days then move the nose peice (the course adjustment) towards me one position (its in the middle now) and the micro away from me (I have it in the third posit...

tired of my loud Swift II. Was excited to get my soyola yesterday....large.

Wore it for 2 hours, woke up and switched back to the swift. Loved the quiet, but it hurt one side of my cheek. I will try again tonight a bit looser, but when loose it leaks if I roll on to my side....

stay tuned

thank you anyway.

I am currently using a swift II that is too noisy and blows air on my bed partners face making her want nothing to do with me.

I'm sure the sexy new Activa or Soyola will cure that

You want the most shocking thing? My DME dealer is Apria. It comes down to the specific RT. Mine is really good. The increase in pressure has made my Swift II too loud for me. He is working on my insurance company to get them to approve an activa or Soyola mask several months earlier than they norma...
