Re: Full LIfe Fan Club

Not much of a fan here. Leaked too much for me at my high pressure of 17-20. Was 1st mask I bought couple months back. Once it was determined my leak rate was just to high, I bought a Quattro and Mirage. Quattro has been best so far, but still had to tweak a bit. Last 2 nights my leak rate was low t...

All good stuff thanks.

Looks like I am getting new masks (Mirage Ultra and Quattro) and will rig up something for myself to prevent me from rolling over in middle of night

I will update on my progress.

Thanks.

Re: Can someone review for a noob?

I believe my pressure should be lower on my sides and stomach. I would like to know how you prevented yourself from sleeping on your back when you 1st fell asleep on your sides or stomach. If their is a way to train yourself not to roll over on your back in the middle of the night, I will try it for...

Re: Can someone review for a noob?

Thanks again. I have been contemplating different masks. I have allergies, so FF is kind of a must for me.

I actually ordered a hose hanger this am and am looking into a quattro and or a resmed ultra.

Gots to get rid of those leaks

Re: Can someone review for a noob?

Thanks Rested gal. Leaks are now the single most difficult thing for me. Having a lot of trouble eliminating at that high pressure. Still don't really know how to fully get rid of them. Rooster, I start on my side/stomach, but I do know sometimes I wind up on my back (which I know is the worst posit...

Can someone review for a noob?

Ok, so been about 3 weeks or so since I have been on my Auto pap. As a refresher, I am listed as severe OSA, titrated and prescribed at 20cm. Bought an Auto machine so I can do this on my own. Encore pro did not show up for the 1st week, so here are my results from past 2 weeks or so. Started at a m...

Woke up to no pressure on my auto M last night 2 times. 2nd time, I woke up to a beeping, then shutoff. My mask was on and hose was connected. Turned back on and it worked fine after. I know their is an auto shutoff I have set and I have seen it work and I would probably be dead without breathing th...
