Re: Looking for a shop at Orlando

Can't help with the name of a store in Orlando but I'm sure you would be able to find one with an internet search of a Orlando/Florida telephone book. However, unless your friend has a prescription for the machine I don't think you can buy one without it. ETA: sorry didn't see last part of your post...

Re: Sleep doc says APAP not medically necessary

Get a new doctor! When I first started down this road I did a lot of research, mostly on this board. I picked up a lot of information that I used in making my case with my doctor. Long story short... He had me set up with a CPAP and a DME. I did not like the DME and did not feel the machine he speci...

Leak Indicator?

I have noticed that at times my pressure starts to rise when I don't think it should. I am using a full face Mirage Quatro on a ResMed AutoSet II pressure range is set at 12 - 15. I start the machine and run the leak test which shows excellent. I lay down and the pressure will increase within the fi...

Re: Sidesleepers - Strange, but Worked

Can we please maintain a sense of respect towards women on this website? It would be nice. If you want that kind of talk, and to post such pictures, there's plenty of other sites on the web where you can do that. I want to read about treating my sleep apnea. I'm not interested in dirty-old men joke...

Re: Impact of mask if measures are good

I don't think you can expect anymore out of a mask than "it is comfortable and leaks from zero to insignificant, so I would guess the problem won't be solved with a new mask.

Re: My sleep doc fired me today...LOL

I also pointed out that it seemed like all they were interested in was getting paid and not my health. JeffH I would imagine that once you said that everything thing else you said was blocked out by the red flags of possible litigation. It seems impossible anymore to be able to have a conversation ...

Re: Snoring after switching to auto

Im going to say yes. The snoring is an idication that the airway is still falling some. Numbers are good, but the body is still struggling some with the snoring. I would also add that you are the only one who does not hear your snoring! I've been told my snoring could be heard through the walls but...

Re: About Sleep Studies

Thanks top everyone for the insight. Just to be clear, the "person" I was asking about is not me. I know I have apnea and have been on CPAP for about 6 months. I have responded well to treatment and feel a lot better than I did. The only problem is that I haven't found that "perfect " mask yet (if s...

About Sleep Studies

A doctor suggested a sleep study for a person who always feels tired and sleeps through the day. I have had sleep studies for Apnea but if Apnea is not suspected as the cause does it make sense to have a sleep study? Would the sleep study be the same type of study done for Apnea? I guess I'm just at...

Re: Mask Decision Based Upon Trial & Error

Your subject header says it all:"Trial & Error."

I'm using the Quattro FF and at times it drives me nuts getting a good seal while other times it's great and I'm not even aware I'm wearing it. I just hope that when I find the "perfect" mask they don't discontinue it!
