Hi there.
I have the Mirage Micro with headgear. It allows me to sleep on my side, I just have to be aware of my pillow because it tend to push on the mask and break the seal.

Nose Sores
Okay, I've been using my new CPAP for a few days now, and unlike the full face mask, I can keep this on all night. I've been sleeping a lot better, which is great. However, I've got these sores around the bridge of my nose. I've found all the great suggestions on how to make the mask fit better, whi...

Re: Well, my study results are in...
I didn't know I had any actual say in the machine that I get. If insurance is covering it at 100%, sadly, don't they dictate that, to some extent?

Well, my study results are in...
Just called to get my results from my sleep study last Wednesday. Thanks to you folks, this time I knew to ask questions. I know I'll have more for the DME company. AHI number is 74.7. Oxygen desaturation was 78%. They're faxing my order for a CPAP over to the DME company today, but she said I likel...

Oxygen until CPAP
Unexpected. I just got a call from a DME company. The doctor from my sleep study this past Wednesday night has ordered oxygen for me to wear at night until I get my CPAP machine. No additional details were available. All they could say was, "Your oxygen saturation must have been very low during your...

Re: Another Sleep Study Tonight
Well, it ended up being a good postive experience. They ended up having to wake me in the middle of the night to put a mask on me because apparently, I wasn't doing so well sleeping to that point. They put the full mask on and true to form, just like a couple of years ago, after some period of time,...

Another Sleep Study Tonight
So, two years ago, I was diagnosed with OSA. I was given a CPAP machine and sent on my way. I had a horrible time with it, but tried over several months to use it. I ended up giving it back to the DME company because I just wasn't using it. Mistake. A couple of years later, my blood pressure's up, m...
