Re: Beware These Trolls

Judging from the msg count and rampant ill-will, it appears it/they CONTINUE to win. Feed the ego and the nonsense persists. Does it really matter who or why? Learn to ignore it and it will stop. I couldn't agree more!! BTW--Cute avatar. http://www.cpaptalk.com/viewtopic/t56941/posting.php?mode=rep...

Re: Former Quattro Users- Find Better One For Nose Bridge?

Wouldn't it be great to be able to make a mold of your face and have a mask custom made? Of course, then the mass-produced replacement parts would cost $100 rather than $50. I only have one more free try for the next 3 months.[/quote] Sillyme, I have used the Quattro for almost 3 months and like you...

Re: Colonoscopy/Endoscopy double whammy!

I went through both these procedures in May and because my oxygen level fell so low they had to wake me up so that I would breath deeper. Needless to say my gastroenterologist set me up with an appointment with a sleep doctor. Alas, because of these procedures I was found to have moderate to severe ...

Hybrid Exhalation vents-where are they?

I recently purchased a Hybrid FFM but I'm having trouble wearing this mask for therapy. When I lay down and turn on my machine I feel like I can't catch my breath. I have no trouble with my Quattro. I'm wondering where the exhalation vents are on the Hybrid. There are five or six tiny indentations, ...

Re: How did you start therapy

I went for a Colonoscopy and an Endoscopy at our local hospital and during the procedure I had significant desaturations even with a nasal Cpap device on. I was refered to a sleep doctor that very day. Within a month I had all my equipment and I started on the road to better health. I wish I had kno...

Re: Same pressure, no matter what type mask?

I too have just changed masks, from a Quatro to an Inomed Hybrid and like you the pressure seems to be much harder to deal with. My pressure is set at 12cm and I had no problem with the Quatro FFM (changed because of nose problems). When I try the Hybrid I feel like I'm gasping for air. I don't know...

Re: respironics mask with $7.0 of price ????????????????????????

It would seem to me that whoever put the 12 pack tag on this screwed up royally. If you open where it says
3 masks, you will see that it says the sale is for only one mask.

Re: is this worry i need to have?

I too have had similar flutters that occurred at quiet moments but mostly when I laid down to sleep ( pre CPAP). I had an Aortic valve replacement almost ten years ago because of an aneurysm. The little flutters started about three years after my surgery and when I told my cardiologist about it, he ...
