virtual Sleep appointment today, random questions

Background. I have been on CPAP therapy for 25 years come this summer. I do know a little about all this and have had to be my own advocate many times in this journey. My last appointment with my Dr was 2.5 years and before that 4 years ago. (He was a new dr. for me 4 years ago as my old one had qui...

Re: Major eye swelling

It sounds part of the problem is an old mask that doesn’t fit well. It is allowing air up into your eyes and they are swelling. If your humidifier doesn’t work, possibly that is causing irritation in your nose and dryness. I have had a CPAP for so long, that my first machine did not have a humidifie...

Re: Hybernite Rainout Control System for sale

I apologize for the delay. I was gone all day. Yes, it worked very well for me. You need an additional power source for the power pack. I use an electrical strip and used the power button for on and off. We sleep cool, and this took care of the problem I now have an integrated hose system. I don’t t...

Re: Resmed Autosense 10 noise

OP checking back in. Well, I had found the "whale" thread, and since my noise wasn't quite what I call a whale breathing, I thought I would post and ask that question. To answer some of you: No, it is not in a new place, position or otherwise any change. No, it is not a connection. This machine has ...

Re: Resmed Autosense 10 noise

I was hoping that maybe someone who owns this machine would post a comment as to the noise factor.
If not, I will call my DME.

Machine is just over 5 months old.

Resmed Autosense 10 noise

Yes, it breathes with me. I didn't explain that very well. I have been on CPAP therapy for over 20 years. I understand it. This is my 3rd machine. I was too sick to notice anything except it worked well for me. Now I am hearing it cycle up and down as I inhale and exhale. I feel like I am on a respi...

Resmed Autosense 10 noise

I have new equipment as of late May. I was very ill with Pulmonary Emboli in both lungs when my machine died. I got a new one then. I also ran a fan in my room until just recently. I now realize the thing "breathes" with me. Is this normal for this machine? I think between being sick and the fan run...

Rainout solutions for S8

Hi folks,

I have not posted in a while!

I have a Resmed S8 for a couple of years now, and I am getting tired of the rainout in the winter. I used to have a covering on my hose, but I didn't put it on when I got the new machine.
Any recommendations for a heated hose system for me?

Thanks!

Re: giving lecture..need input..DME

Honesty is key. When I ask "is this machine Data Capable", don't tell me yes, and then I find out from this forum that is is "compliant" only. When I go back and ask them to explain, don't give me a full data machine that has probably been used and pass it off as new. ( I figured it out when I went ...

Software for Auto Set S8..

I see that Cpap.com says this is no longer available from them. Can you buy it elsewhere?
