Re: gel seal face maks

I have the same mask you do. I got a comfortgel full because my quattro was leaking, and at first I thought the gel was awesome- now, not so much. It leaks worse than the Quattro now. But it's all about your face shape I guess- it may work 10x better for you. One weird thing- it has this weird gel s...

Re: Deep breaths during the day

I notice myself taking different breaths now too. Nothing bothersome, but I may mention it to the doc the next time I'm in.

Re: Weekly Mask Cleaning---OverKill ???

I clean my humidifier every week, my hose every wk or every other, but my mask I have to clean every day I'm jealous of those who don't. My skin is too oily to do it any less.

Re: Quattro Mask Seal Issues

I feel your pain. I actually have to tighten my Quattro so much that it digs into my skin. I've tried having it float, but with my pressure (19) I just don't think it's possible. I tried the Mack's plugs, I'd read about them here, but I can't get them to stay in place. Let me know if you do come up ...

Re: Love or hate the quattro

I go back and forth. I loved it at first, then it started blowing air into my eyes so much that they were bulging onto my waterline for hours after I got out of bed. I got the Comfortgel full, and that thing leaks like nothing I've ever seen so it made me appreciate the Quattro a lot more Of course,...

Re: Poll: How Often Do You Clean Your Tank?

I realize this is an old thread, but wanted to respond too I rinse mine out daily and once a week clean with baby shampoo. I haven't had any issues yet, but you guys have me freaked out with the slime and pink gunk talk. If I ever see anything like that I'll probably clean it daily so I don't start ...

Re: Poll: Type of Mask(s)

I have a Comfortgel full and a Quattro. The Quattro was my first and was leaking horribly- the DME sold me the comfortgel instead but let me keep both. Neither is working as good as I'd like at the current moment, but what can I do- I've got another month at least before I can get another mask. I'm ...

Re: POLL: What was your AHI at your diagnostic sleep study?

My AHI was 147. Needless to say, no matter how much my masks annoy me (and I switch out between two that are equally annoying), I will remain 100% compliant, because I feel two hundred times better than I did.

Re: Poll: Remembering Dreams

I never really remembered any dreams before therapy. Occasionally I would remember some random dream, or I'd have some really horrible ones that would wake me up which I now think were related to OSA. I didn't know I had OSA it at the time, but I'd wake up gasping for air and either I'd be dreaming ...

Re: Noticing strange accompaniment to starting tx

I'm experiencing the same thing but hadn't really made the connection until I just read your post. One of my friends is a pretty loud talker anyway, but lately I've noticed it is actually hurting my ears- other things too like thinking the tv is too loud when my husband says it's not, hearing a co-w...
