Re: Swift LT for her to Mirage Liberty?

I use the Mirage Liberty mask and I'm very happy with it. But then what works for one person does not work for another. What really helped me was viewing the "Fitting and Cleaning" video on Resmed's website. http://www.resmed.com/us/products/mirage_liberty/videos.html?nc=patients&sec=true Once I got...

Re: Still New, Making Slow Progress

As for the mixed reviews with the Liberty, I think you'll find that with any mask. Everyone's face is different. And what works for one person will not work for another. I looked at those reviews also, and I noticed some of the negative ones might of had the mask on too tight. Because they complaine...

It's kind of not like a real full face mask. The mask only coverers your mouth and the nasal pillows take care of the nose. It also cut d...

Re: Is there a card reader and software that is mac OS 10 compat

You all have been very helpful. And I thank you very much. I guess the first thing to do is to look into a different cpap machine that records more data. I have been a Mac Addict for a very long time. And I hate the idea of using Windows. It's bad enough that is what I have to use at work. Right now...

Is there a card reader and software that is mac OS 10 compat

I'm using a REMstar m series cpap plus with a SmartCard module that uses a Encore Pro Smart Card. My doctor always sees my SmartCard on my quarterly visits. And I am still fairly new to this and having a hard time getting use to the cpap. Would it be worth it to get a card reader and software so I c...

Re: why Distilled water?

Minerals in tap water may increase the development of crusty deposits, or scale, in humidifiers. Scale can be a breeding ground for microorganisms. Tap water does have a greater chance of having living bacteria in it, specially well water. Something about breathing in living bacteria and other micro...
