Well I've been using it for a couple of weeks now and I love it. Spice and Piece are my favs. I'm still waking up a couple of times a night but really do not feel the need to rip my mask off. I'm thinking i might order some of the other scents to try out. Thanks again for picking me as a trial subje...

Anyone with a bigger nose or face have it and have a problem? see any issues with a fat nose? I know ...

This is so weird. I just switched from a APAP with C-flex to one with A-flex and my pressure went up. Not 3.5 points but 1.5 from 10 to 11.5. I'm wondering if it has something to do with A-flex or something.

I also had a sore nose but I had surgery a month ago so i think that might be my problem.

I had Septoplasty, Turbinate reduction and one other thing I can’t remember right now but it had to do with Turbinate’s and air pockets. This was done on November 28th last week. Not only did I have a deviated septum but I had a large bone spur on my septum that they removed as well. The day of surg...

United

I also have United Health care out here in Oregon. My only choice was Apria according to United. I am not impressed with Apria at all. They have not been helpful on choices of products. If I hadn't found this website I would have been totally lost. They take 3-5 days to return calls. Not impressed. ...

I got my Swift II of the cpap auction site so thats kinda like cpap.com. I'm a newbie as well and i would have loved to check out the new product.

I would be nice to know what the criteria is to be picked for future reference.

Ditto. When I signed up it was 0 of 50. Went back a couple of days later and it was 46 of 50. Now its closed.

haven't heard a word. I'm assuming i was not picked.

I love my Swift II. It would be fun to compare it to something new.

I too have had major issues with my local DME. I also had to go back to my Dr. to get an Auto machine. I would have not problem purchasing equipment online and I'm quite sure the next mask and machine i get will come from someone other then my local DME.
