Re: APAP with oxygen and travel
I use oxygen 2L with my CPAP at night and am also a camper. I went camping about a month ago for the first time with my CPAP and oxygen. I have a smaller portable oxygen concentrator that I took along and we went to a campground with electric and that worked out well for me. We then went to a no hoo...

Re: Severe drooling...how to make it stop???
I've done some drooling also and I've wondered what caused it. My settings seem to be ok. Perhas the prednisone has something to do with it as I am on that. The dose has been cut down and since then I haven't had any drooling.

Re: Dirty Cpap Equipment is a Dead End Road
My water that I use is from a reverse osmosis system I have installed in my home. Would you'll consider that comperable to distilled water?

Re: BAD DME, BAD
I hear ya's about the DME's. My insurance uses Walgreen's Home Care. When I did my sleep study, I liked the somno plus and my doctor specifically wrote for that with the size xs specified-that's what I used and it worked well. When the RT came out with my cpap and mask, she brought a somno plus alri...

Hi All, I will be traveling via airlines in July. I know that I am allowed to take my cpap on board, however, I will also be bringing along a portable oxygen concentrater. I asked about that, not sure they understood what I was talking about and they said "sure, you can bring on your cpap, no matter...

Still Tired
I have been using my cpap for 3-4 weeks now and love it. I feel so much less exhausted, however, I still can become very tired in the afternoon when say sitting in front of a computer or reading. Is this normal and will it resolve?
