Re: Lips of STEEL! Nothing can stop them!

Hi,

Before you try all the different masks would you try one more thing.

Use a chin strap and a tape and see how it works. My thinking is this: the chin strap will keep your jaws together even though the jaw muscles have relaxed and the tape would keep the lips sealed (literally speaking).

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

I have the tank for PR S1. It is easy to open. I always use distilled water. Every morning I empty the tank and rinse with tap water and then I leave it out to dry.

I don't know what the best deal is out there or not, but here's my recommendation: I've been using the PR S1 BiPAP machine and I've been happy with it so far.

Re: Newbie Question about APAP / PR System One with C-flex

A basic question. What exactly is a moleskin? Is it some sort of padding? If so, how would it help? Would it prevent from having a good seal with the mask?

So, I ended up getting the following setup: PR System 1 BiPAP Auto PR System 1 Humidifier Mirage Activa LT Mask. I got a Resmed Easy Life Mask as well on a loaner just to see if it works for...

Re: So, I've been diagnosed with...

Thank you John for clearing that up. Being new to XPAP treatment, all this information is immensely useful. Between the PR S1 BiPAP Auto and the S8 VPAP Auto 25, which has better data capability? I read somewhere that the Encore Pro software did not work well with the new PR System One machine. Is t...

Re: Hole In Roof

One of my friend is taking Ambien for his insomnia. I read some of his emails that he sent after he took the Ambien and before going to bed. This sounds just like it. All I would like to say is that thanks for keeping this forum in your thoughts and I mean it in the most sincere way.

Thank you. I'll update that. That is the list I'm taking with me to the DME within a couple of days . I'm looking forward to getting one of these machines and trying them out.
