Re: nasal pillows
I use the swift LT, and any soreness I have is very minor. It's only a bit sensitive when I need to go digging around in there, and only on one side. Try some lansinoh, and try easing off a bit on the straps. I was quite surprised to find just how loose I could get the headgear without any problems....

Re: A little frustrated with treatment so far :(
I'm just about in the same boat as you. 3 weeks in too. I spent a week with a nasal mask before I couldn't take it any more and bought a swift LT. I'm still tired. Some days I feel better than before I started, but most days I feel the same or even worse. I have yet to sleep a full night without wak...

Re: C-flex question
Thanks, I guess I'll rephrase my observations and questions a bit for clarification. I have a CPAP, and not an APAP. I do not use the ramp function on my machine when falling asleep, and I'm aware of how it works. I am noticing quite a difference in the volume of airflow between when I go to bed and...

C-flex question
Hi everyone, I've searched through the forum and can't find a specific answer about c-flex. When I go to sleep, my machine feels like it's blowing full blast (my pressure is 10). After a couple of breaths, I can feel the c-flex kicking in and exhaling is much easier, but the pressure during my inhal...

nasal pillow protection?
So I've only been at this a week so far, and it sucks. I hate the nasal mask I got from my provider. It leakes bad and has turned the bridge of my nose to hamburger no matter how I adjust it. I ordered a Swift LT, and just got it today. (Super fast even with free shipping, thanks cpap.com) Without a...

Re: nasal masks and tears
Thanks everyone. It's been encouraging to learn that this isn't a slam dunk for most people. I haven't yet had an uninterrupted night so far, but I do think I'm starting to feel a bit better. I actually had the energy today to go to the gym after a draining day at work. Rather than deal with my DME ...

Re: nasal masks and tears
Thanks. I filled out my profile. I'm a side sleeper, and after my titration night with a full mask I decided on a nasal mask. The full face mask got knocked sideways a few times, and I thought the nasal mask would be a bit better. When the tech first put the nasal pillows on me before I did the titr...
