Re: Full face mask question - Forma vs Vitera
Thanks! Does the Vitera get pushed off with shifting overnight? That's probably my other concern with going with a mask that doesn't go over the chin, because I definitely move around a lot in my sleep, but I don't know if that's unfounded.

Full face mask question - Forma vs Vitera
My local supplier has been moving away from stocking the Forma and moving toward the Vitera, and I was wondering if anyone happened to have tried both masks and would have an opinion on them? I tried the Vitera for a week, but I think after a decade or so of using a mask that has gone under the chin...

Re: Weight Loss and AHI change
I'll probably do another study this summer just to be sure, but I'll fiddle around with the numbers. Hopefully I can get a printout of my device's information as well, but that might be more of a long shot.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Re: Weight Loss and AHI change
It's not convenient for me to get in touch with my DME at the moment unfortunately. I may look into the cable thing to see if that's a possibility... but seeing that S9 uses a standard SD card, I'm a bit jealous and wish I had upgraded my old device a year later than I did. That said, if I were to a...

Re: Weight Loss and AHI change
An S8 "WHAT"? Which specific model? The Elite and Autoset models were fully data-capable with software. Lots of people liked the S8 series. What are your settings? (pressure, EPR, etc.) Den . My apologies. I have an S8 Elite 2. My understanding is that it uses a proprietary "smart card", which I do...

Re: Weight Loss and AHI change
Unfortunately I only have a Resmed S8, so I don't have any specific data on hand. I know that my yearly, half-yearly, and monthly average AHI was around 7. My average for the last week was around 6. But the last couple of days it has become 15 and I can definitely "feel it" in terms of my head being...

Weight Loss and AHI change
Hi all, I've been losing some weight and at first I noticed that I was sleeping well and my average AHI was hovering at around the 6 range. I've continued to lose weight, but I have noticed I haven't been sleeping as well and sure enough my AHI is now at around 15. I was just wondering if this is re...

Re: "Master Herbalist 'Snoring & Sleep Apnea Eze'"
Not sure if it's okay to bump old topics, but basically this stuff is mostly for helping people fall asleep but doesn't really help for the actual breathing when asleep?

Re: Online retailer reviews
Thanks for the replies! The prices are half of what they're asking for up here, so even with shipping it's worth it.
Do cpap.com and secondwindcpap.com ship via USPS?

Online retailer reviews
Hi, I'm considering ordering a mask online since it's cheaper and I was wondering if anyone could recommend a reliable retailer that ships to Canada?
At the moment I'm looking at Cpap.com and Directhomemedical.com, but if there are any opinions/suggests, that would be very helpful.
Thanks!

Lovely, thanks!
Edit - I take it then that clearly the lower the numbers, the better?

Re: Help me please, new user, new to message board
Hi, sorry to hijack the thread a little bit, but is there somewhere I can look to see what these acronyms (AHI, AI, HI) mean? I just bought an S8 Elite and I'd like to interpret the data to see if it's working for me.
Thanks.
Thanks.
