Re: Swift LT-Burns Nose.
For me, if I'm not mistaken, the burning seems to be coming from the air. If the pillows collapse, I don't feel the air coming in and I don't feel the burning. But when I adjust the pillows and feel the air then the air feels like burning. They set up my humidifier to 2 so I moved it up and down to ...

Nasal cushions-
I'm a new CPAP user and have been using the different size pillows for almost 2 weeks (with the Swift LT) to find a better fit. My nares squash the air holes and I don't feel enough air is coming in/out. So I keep pulling them away from my nose but for the last couple of nights my nostrils have been...

Re: Swift LT-Burns Nose.

I am a new CPAP user and thought the nasal pillows were the ones for me. I tried all the sizes on different nights and none of them appear to fit properly. Not only do they push up my nose a lot but my nares seem to push into the pillow holes and not enough air comes in and out. I need to find somet...

OSA or CSA, how do they determine which one you have
I recently had a sleep study and was diagnosed with OSA. Does anyone know how they determine which one you have? I understand the differences between the two. Do you need to have further studies to determine which one?

Re: Made it through the night-3rd night!
4th night for me.... much better, woke up only once. My mask pushes my nose up and not only wake up with bags under my eyes but my nose is very puffy. I was guessing this is due to the pressure of the mask pushing my nose up and therefore a little bit towards my lower eyelids. I'm trying different s...
