To KRUTH83: My oldest prescription is Bi-PAP IPAP = 12, EPAP = 7, Diff = 3 w/ Auto Flex, and it has been changed several times by my doctor to IPAP =18, EPAP= 7, Diff = 3 w/ Auto Flex. To DSM: So how can I find out that my Bi-PAP setting makes me into a CompSA situation? Can it be revealed from the ...

Hi, Dear Friends on CPAPTalk.com: It has been almost 2 years since my last posting on this forum. How is everyone? I had my 1st sleep study on Aug. '08, and started my Bi-PAP treatment on Nov. '08 with M-series Bi-PAP Auto + ResMed Mirage Quatrro Full Face Mask. My sleep doctor always considers me a...

To Babette: Thanks a lot for telling me that I can use "Whisper Cap" to lower down the noise of my new M-series BiPAP machine. I have the sample aromatic pads from Pur-sleep, but it is too big for the M-series' air inlet. So can I drop 1 ~3 drops of the aromatic oil from Pur-sleep directly onto the ...

Hi, everyone! Long time no see! How are you? I just went back to have a follow-up visit with my sleep doctor. After reviewed the records in the card that recorded my BiPAP treatment for the last 7 weeks, he admired me for pretty-well adopting to the treatment and for continuing using the BiPAP mach...

Hi, cflame1: The machine I ma using now is rent from my DME, and what they have right now for a BiPAP aptient like me is BiPAP Pro2. I have told my doc and the DME that I want to get the M-Series BiPAP with auto Bi-Flex. Hope that I can have my own BiPAP ASAP. By the way, what is the difference betw...

I just started my BiPAP therapy this Monday (10/06). The following is what happened for the passed 3 night: 10/06 (Monday): I just cannot fall asleep because I am fighting with my Swift LT nasal Pillow almost all the 1st half of the night. My nose hurts like hell, especially on the tip of my nose. A...

The fragrance pad is excellent. It does help me get extracted from my feeling of something pressing my nose (I wore the SWIFT LT nasal pillow) and help me fall asleep. The fragrance I tried in "peace". The night I tried out the fragrance pad is the 2nd night I started my BiPAP therapy. The fragrance...

I am eager to join the Newbie chat, but due to my personal schedule (Monday 9:30 PM EST is 6:30 PM in California, and that's the time I hit the gym), I just missed the chats on 09/08 and 09/22. So I wonder can we have a 2nd newbie chat during the week ( better if it is scheduled on Sunday ) so that ...

OSA is not something I really want, but since it has come to me, I try to minimize the damage that it may cause to my health. I want to have a good start on my PAP therapy so that I can have a better chance to continue my therapy for the rest of my life. I have read all the useful info posted in th...

Hi, everyone in this community: My name is Joseph, and I live in San Diego, CA. I just switched my medical service provider to Scripps. When I visited my new PCP for the first time, I didn't complain about getting tired/sleepy easily, but somehow he just got the feeling to prescribe me a nocturnal o...
