Have Mirage Quattro FF thats giving me all kinda trouble,
medium size, have used 3 nights. Clean mask ,has blue bag it came in , head gear included.

Well the Swift II has me closer than the FF masks did , and I can put the hose almost anywhere I want to, so I'm close I believe. Thanks for your'e input.

Just changed from Mirage Quattro to the Mirage Swift II, last night was 1st night and non of the dry mouth or anoying air leaks. Was wandering if the Comfort Curve by Resperonics would be any better of mask to use, I mean it just dosen't have the invasive pillows. Really just trying to find a mask I...

Slinky, what I taped up was right on top of the bridge of the nose on the mask. That vent is about 3/8 wide and 1,1/4 long, just a bunch of little holes in that area. I had the bottom 4 taped. Thanks for the CO2 information. I can adjust my humidifier settings and as far as the condensation I can mo...

Only 2nd night with new Mirage Quattro but bad dry mouth again. The vent is kinda long on this mask and when I in hale air comes right in to my mouth, not alot but some and through the night it turns in to bad dry mouth. So I took a small peice of tape,1/4" wide and not even 1/2" long and that stope...

Fred, your'e right there is a stigma associated with mental illness, which I don't know a lot about but I do know a lot about Epilepsy and there is the same stigma your'e talking about. After a temporal lobe lobectomy in Aug. 05 the following spring I was kinda' upset that my seizures didn't stop, a...

mch441, well what it comes down to for me is that the the treatment is supposed to make us sleep better and thus day to day life better. And if the mask is not gonna work right for me after trying adjustments, I'm not even going to turn on the cpap machine at night, the mask can just collest dust. B...

I'm not sure about the dog issues but I did get off the phone with my home health care provider and they said I had 7 days from when I got the mask to decide if it was gonna be the right one for me. I'm on day 5, and they didn't sound like it would be a problem, told me they would be delivering to a...

allergyridden, they didn't give me the one I slept in , and I was wandering why, but not knowing anything about apnea , I thought they knew best. I think I will at least call and find out if I can trade r something. I'm starting to feel better through the day but still waking up off & on with that w...

How hard is it to get a new mask from youre home health care provider when youv'e only had the mask 5 days? I've got the comfort gel nasal mask with chin strap. And have got the head gear adjusted ok, but by itself my mouth still comes open and the treatment is no good, and have adjusted the chinstr...

And also thanks for your quick reply, it realy means a lot having people like you to ask questions and get great informat...

On my first night I turned the humidifier all the way up, and wore the chin strap.... no dry mouth, so next day I started trying it without the chin strap and foundout that my pressure setting ,11 was enough to h...

It's gonna' take some tome to learn to relax the whole night w...
