Does anyone have a link to a tag to put on my machine for air travel tomorrow? The link to the mindspring one does not work. Thanks so much.

Would any lanolin cream work? The hospital I work at has little tubes of lanolin but not that name brand? I'm so tired of the leaks and TIRED from not wearing the leaking mask that I would try anything. Thanks.

The last 2 nights my mask has been leaking like crazy, I've stood in front of the mirror, adjusted, re adjusted, sat and talked with a Respiratory Therapist at work .... tried all her tricks and you know what ... last night I didn't even bother, neither did I the night before after an hour of leaks...

I had horrible problems with leaks with my mirage quattro full face. Someone put me on to Remzzzs mask liners. They are made of cotton and are cut to fit over the plastic gasket on your mask. I bought a box of 30 and didn't use them for a month because they looked too simple to work. I finally used...

Just a thought, but before I became familiar with cpap , I thought what I was hearing was my husband snoring but it was really his mask leaking a LOT. The Quattro can be a little finicky to get a good seal. When I've had mask leaks, they sounded like a bodily function, but it wasn't "snoring"! Mine...

Just another tidbit ... when I had my sleep studies they told me I was having 102 apneic episodes and hour with my Pulse Ox going to 78%; and even with my CPAP on during the study I was still averaging about 25 apneic episodes.

To answer all ... first of all I am sooooo exhausted today .... can't keep eyes open, drowsy driving to work. Yes I was sleeping on my back and I had taken Xanax. Then the seal kept leaking and leaking and I finally took it off. Then went to go sleep on couch as all this hissing from the mask and sn...

Last night, he said he could hear me snoring THROUGH my CPAP all the way across the house ... is this something that happens?

I went to my dentist shortly after starting cpap therapy and was surprised at his knowledge of OSA. He told me that dentists are actually trained to watch symptoms in their patients. He also told me that I should call him if I developed any sensitivity in my teeth or pain in my jaw as sometimes thi...

I went to my dentist a few weeks before my sleep study and she told me that CPAP users have a higher incident of tooth decay ... told me about biotene ... all fine and dandy. Well I am noticing that the upper part of my upper teeth on the sides are very very sensitive since using CPAP. Is this caus...

Just talked to the RT here at work and she said the same thing if it's a full face mask then I am OK. Thanks guys for the fast input.

I know, here's another newbie with another question ... I have a full face mask and I thought that KEPT your mouth shut at night, well last night I guess my mouth was open in it all night as I woke up that way and have an extremely dry mouth .... I use Biotene ... but I was shocked my mouth was open...

It's possible that your mouth is drying up on the full face mask so you're producing more saliva to try and compensate for a dry mouth. Did you find your mouth got dry in the last two nights? No not at all; I've been using the Biotene since I got my CPAP .... would that happen because 2 nights ago ...

The last 2 nights, I've noticed I'm drooling in my mask ... is this normal? WHY would this happen. I am a mouth breather and have a full face mask and in 3 weeks this is the first time I've noticed this. Thanks.

Took a Xanax, lowered the humidity to 1.5 instead of the 2.5 it was on, I like cooler air and hate being warm. Except for one time to get up to the bathroom; I wore it ALL night. Drooled a bit in it, don't know how that happened, but success .... hoping each night I continue on. Didn't even wake up ...
