Thanks all for the reply's, I am off to bed now. Anymore info would be great. Im not sure what the EPR means on my machine? Im still not even use to using the cpap, have had some tough times, but my wife says I do not snore and when I have no leaks and dont knock the mask off I seem to feel better. ...

Thanks for the input. Is the DME the provider, like I have apria, should I ask them?

Was that store secondwindcpap.com?

The bummer part is I needed one more month on my old insurance and they were going to purchase it for me.

$1200 is kinda high, im looking for something cheaper.

My insurance my company switched to is terrible. In one year in co-payments I can buy 2 used machines. Anyone here buy a used machine? and if so where do you suggest to go get a used unit. What brands to stay away from? My old insurance co was $13 a month, now its $43 and blue shield wont buy the ma...

I can sleep with the full face, its just it would leak around the goatee. I didnt want to shave it off so I tried other masks, hoping the nasal pillow would work. MY wife said I would "puff" through my mouth sometimes with the nasal pillow. I guess if I have to shave to be healthy, then shave is wha...

ok I switched back to the full face mask for 2 nights and here are those numbers
leak .12l/s
AHI 3.9
AI .5
HI 3.4
does this look better?
Thanks

yes I did switch the mask setting on the machine. I never looked at the leak rate before, didnt know how, but the reason for switching was because of leaking around the nose and that would wake me up a lot. The air would blow into my eyes and wake me up. I had a bit of dry mouth this am , my wife i...

thanks everyone. I think there was some water in the tube. and the popping came before I woke up in the am so it was not on the ramp mode at that time. the tube ripped so I wasn't able to wear it this weekend. I will stop and get a new hose today and see if this noise continues or if it was from the...

thanks for the replies. I think what I mean when I say little success, is that I'm still really tried. But I think after years of not sleeping, 2 weeks is not enough time to see real results. I am very optimistic about this, just want sleep I go back to the sleep center on the 20th and they will rev...

Hey n00b here. did some searching but didnt find what I was looking for. I have been using the cpap for about 2 weeks now with little success other than not snoring. By all means I am not giving up. This morning my wife and I woke up to the mask making a popping noise that sounded like it was coming...
