Hi DurtGurl, The one I have seems to now be called the NoseBreathe mouth piece. I noticed it is listed as $140 plus other charges like shipping and God knows what else. I don't know what the "heavy mouth breather" device is. Mine is the simple tongue shelf and yes aside from discoloring it's as soli...

Hi everyone ... Kermit here. I had forgotten about my post #34 July 16, 2005 recommending the Nosebreathe dental device. I looked up this post when recommending the device to a good friend. http://www.cpaptalk.com/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=3807 Been more that 15 years. I would like to update the forum on ...

Hi everyone, I haven't logged on for the longest time. Got notification that a thread I started was active again. I am doing very well sleepwise and in many other ways. After years of experimentation, I turned my 420e into a straight cpap, opened the pressure gates to my official titrated pressure a...

Hi, Yes I use my NB every night and am satisfied with it. I don't understand why Sleepless's gets loose. This morning taking it off was just as difficult as the first week and I think I am now on month two. To get if off I need to insert my fingernails at the upper edge and pull straight down near t...

Sleepless, I am sure my branch can order the Swift it's just that Kaiser contracted to get the Respironics masks and Breeze I mentioned. Yes my Apria branch is the worst as I have had nothing but headaches with them, but this time it's my insurance company, Kaiser, that went along with Apria's cheap...

BP I have been using my 420e for over 18 months daily, near the floor with their 6ft hose in the auto mode and it was quiet. I now have it on the night table 2 feet from my head using a 4ft hose I converted to adapt to using the little PB pressure hose AND like you changed the mode to CPAP AND run a...

I don't think BillMyInsurance will penetrate the Kaiser Permanente fortress, Sigh! Apria is the worst DME and Kaiser does not know any better, they keep signing contracts with Apria to ONLY supply their members with 4 crappy unpopular Respironics masks and for nasal use, only the Breeze. I can get t...

Mr Treehorn, You did not mention specifics about your camping situation. It can range from backpacking to "camping" in a class A diesel pusher. If you were in an RV you would or could have lots battery power available when dry camping, meaning no electrical hookups. I am assuming you are car camping...

Hi, I used an Adams for a short time but being new to cpap at that time, I didn't quite know what was going on or able to compare. Yes it used to be very popular and uses the Breeze pillows. The headgear was ok and simple. Tension was applied by pulling on the side velcro straps. The air vent was a ...

Hi Sleepless, First time I read ANY post in over a week. I come home to sleep then leave again early in the morning to work. Will be off next week, first time in almost a year. Glad you are benefiting from Dr Sue's device. I did not need to receive any after purchase care since it worked flawlesly r...

Hi guys, Haven't used the internet all week. Working round the clock with a very big installation at work. Pre-cpap days I would have been fired and almost was when the work load was half what it is now. On top of that my 83 year dad had another surgery and I am helping him after work. He is ok now,...

Ok, I finally got around to ordering my spare device. I will only save the $7.95 shipping as he charges the full $80 for a second. That's ok as if not for Dr Sue, I would be still be messing with tape.

Kermit

Hi guys, I guess kneading the two clays well and quickly is important. Roll into a short cigar and bend into a U for the tray. I think I made mine too long and had a thinner mold. I was concerned but did not want to take more time by re-rolling a fatter cigar. It's easy to bite hard. I held mine for...

Hi Derek, You just made one of the most accurate low pressure measuring devices around. Better than fancy and expensive hand held manometers and no calibration required. I bought a Dwyer manometer with scale calibrated in centimeters and use distilled water with their dye to better see the water col...

Sleepless, you are too kind. Smart, not terribly, I am not even in your league when it comes to intelligence, trust me. What I wrote were my findings as I have given this a lot of thought. Let's face it Sleepless, it's our life and if we don't do something about it no one else will. But you have hea...
