So I broke my mask on friday, and called today to order a new one (no worries, i had a backup). The DME asked me if I'd been following up with Dr. X. (the dr. at the sleep lab who diagnosed and prescribed the equipment) uh.. following up? I haven't heard from Dr. X since I walked out the door. At th...

Hi Karen!

That's exactly what I'm looking for. I'll call to place my order instead of doing it online to make things easier

thanks!
Amy

thanks so much!

Hi guys!

It's getting cold here, and im starting to experience rainout. I want to order a pad-a-cheeck hose cover for my new FX but forgot to measure it.

Does someone have the FX that wouldn't mind measuring the hose for me?

Thanks!
Amy

so im on month... 6? 7? something like that going very very well. i use it every night. I have resisted using a chin strap, i didn't want the hassle. I could sleep with my mouth closed. no big deal. I switched masks, from the swift LT to the swift FX. I'm having some problems with the FX but confide...

My swift LT was broken, there was a leak in the hose. So I decided to try the new swift FX.. I got it today and almost want to go to bed early so i can try it LOL It was funny.. I went through my DME because 1) I am inherently lazy 2) I want it to count towards my deductible 3) that was the easiest ...

The stress from the last few weeks at work (BIG project went live) well, it's catching up with me. So on Friday I decided i need a vacation. Just some time away. I'm going to spend four days in the Smokies at the end of February. I called my friend to see if she'd watch one of my dogs, and well, now...

thank you so much! I'll send her an email tonight

i use swiftLT mask, with a heated hose. humidifier is on 3, I cannot tolerate it at a lower setting, i wake up with a dry scratchy throat, or worse, wake up with the mask off. the problem im having is not major, more of an annoyance, but.. does anyone sell a hose cover for the small hose that is par...

ok TheDreamer... I have to ask

is your name a WoW reference?

probably not, but every time I see you post something I hear "You will NEVER wake the Dreamer" in my head from the WC instance

I've found that if I have the nose piece angled wrong, it's harder to breath. if I adjust it slightly, I notice a definite difference in how easy it is to breathe out

So Spirit is correct, do not put it in the water..

i got this a week ago

LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEE it

did I mention that I loved it?

everyone needs one!

Just want to start off saying, I love your name Those are some of the best books out there. I'm fairly new to this too, and almost went into a full blown panic attack when i first started using my mask. I felt like I couldn't breathe, so i started breathing faster and shallower, next thing im hyperv...

the aussie heated hose fixed my rainout 100% and i have a very cold bedroom, and keep my humidifier on 3.

My machine was a purchase by my insurance company, they aren't renting it for me. My DME while helpful in getting the initial equipment, has been fairly unhelpful when I had questions, I have gotten the vast majority of any assistance I needed from this forum, and also directly from my insurance com...
