Re: Swift Lt Users---Question ?
I use the Swift Lt for Her and have for nearly 2 years. I've tried them all, and this is my favorite. I still struggle with the desire to use the CPAP, but the alternative is a sure trip to the ER for cardioconversion for SVT caused by Hypoxia from not using my cpap!

Re: OSA & HEART FAILURE/SVT/PUMONARY HYPERTENSION
Yes, wish I had started therapy earlier too. But, the good news, is it is never too late! I am getting better every day. Maybe my story will save someone from my fate, or give them hope that there is an answer towards improving their quality of life. Thanks for your reply.

One side of my nasal passages always seems to be clogged. I was having such a time with this that I felt like I couldn't breathe and would panic when first putting on my nasal pillow system when laying down. I too, also started trying to use things like Ocean Nasal Irrigation system, Afrin, etc., an...
