I have a Respironics Sleep Easy & I think mine is "basic" no info except hours.

AKCpapguy~~Like the info you provided. IYHO do you think I shoud do the 1 week trial on full data capable loaner first??

All I can add is that I was advised to never (!) use anything that had petroleum in it because petroleum will cause the nasal pillows/etc to disintegrate!

Mattman~~Thanks for the sound advice! I will try it "your" way! Certainly is discouraging, tho'!
What ever would we do without all you people willing to help???!!!!
Thanks again!

Called my DME provider this afternoon. HMMMMPF!!! I was told that nothing could be done. I asked if it would do any good for me to call Medicare. I was told NO that they would not approve any of the machines with a smart card. Also, that I would have to wait another 4 & 1/2 years for another machine...

I have a SleepEasy with heated humidifier CPAP machine. Have had it since September. Since reading so much on this forum, I have come to the conclusion that I was given the most basic machine there is. It gives me NO info except how long I have it on each night. Since I am on Medicare with a supplim...

Congratulations!! I hope it continues to work well for you! I have had the Swift LT for Her since the end of September. Tried another & didn't like the thing on my forehead. The Swift seems to work well for me also! I just wish I could get to the point of having more energy. The doctor says that it ...

I use the Swift LT for Her & I found that if I put a cream (I use Anti-Itch Hydrocortisone CREAM) around the whole nasal outside area it helps to seal. Be sure what ever you use has NO petroleum as this will disintegrate the pillows. My biggest problem is after removeing mask in the morning, I have ...

We ended up with around 40 inches!! No school all last week & not expected to reopen until middle or end of the coming week.
Don't want to get any more! Thus was just tooooooo much!!

Well, if nothing else~~you all gave us a smile for this morning!!!
Thanks~~

I am a real "newbie"!! I have had my CPAP for 6 weeks. I am 73 and truly want to feel better. I don't mind the machine at all~but don't really notice that I feel better. I don't get up for BR breaks as often ~down to about 0 to 1 time a night. But, I am discouraged that I am not feeling better durin...

I don't think people are switching just to be switching. I think there is probably a reason they want to TRY something different. I use the Swift LT for Her & I like it fairly well, but have a problem with the straps slipping & then have air leaks. If I tighten the straps I end up with a sore nose &...

Is there a way I can set the postings so I see the newest ones first instead of having to go to the end of the listings???
Thanks!!

Ooooops~~I think I figured it out! Old saying~~first read directions!!!

I have only been on my CPAP for 1 month. Have a Swift HT for Her. Works well sometimes! I srill have not noticed a change in how I feel. I have tried a full face, could not handle~~tried the one that only covers the nose & it made the bridge of my nose sore & if I loosened it I had leaks. If anyone ...

I take the humidifier & empty & take apart & rinse with really warm water & let air dry. Then I take the nose part off the mask & wash it & let it air dry. Hang hose to let condensation air dry & wash them about once a week.
