Re: What do people do with old CPAP gear?

True. I was told to stop using it. Looks to be more of a body position thing that I would have never found without CPAP.

Another in lab study tomorrow.

Re: What do people do with old CPAP gear?

Thanks! I am pretty sure I have well over 6000 hours on my equipment. I might keep it to dial in a better sleep position. I am searching for something to track body position, I have a snorecoach but it's buggy and today again failed to record data. I will have to start a new fhread, hoping there are...

What do people do with old CPAP gear?

I no longer need any of my gear, what should I do with it? S9 Autoset, Humidifier, heated tube and mask (just a week of use on those), case. Its 8 years old but works fine. Is that old enough to throw out? (recycle etc) If some place is cleaning these up for those that cant afford them I would prefe...

Miracle? ZERO at home study, throat good, no CPAP? Wtf

ahi 60+ normally. Anyone else ever have this happen? Im hoping i am just an idiot. I dialed in my sleep position for CPAP and never tried the position without CPAP. When sleeping without the mask its always by accident, as with all tests I am on my back. My throat doesn't lie, no puking, no headache...

If I let doctors control my care I would have died long ago.

Resmed Download

Could someone tell me where the newest Rescan download is? Sick of trying to open sleepyhead with 7-z or whatever it is. Too tired to fight with it. If someone else has taken the windows build of tat and compressed it with something that windows can actually open that would be nice too.

Thanks.

Re: new mask

Mouth breathing can do it. Do you have a humidifier? If so crank up the setting and see if that helps.

Re: Left my chamber at home

I lived in Phoenix too where you really need the humidifier but in other areas you might not need it as much.

Re: depressed immune system from chemo. Best cleaning for CPAP.

I just let it go too long without cleaning it out I think. I use RO water so maybe that's the issue.

Re: depressed immune system from chemo. Best cleaning for CPAP.

If I go too long without cleaning I can report it will make you sick. I have had this happen twice. Heavy lungs, sore throat etc. The first time it happened I took out the humidifier container and there was something growing in it! Looked like little white worms or something in the bottom! The secon...

Re: newbie today looking forward to bedtime!

I noticed you do not need much exhale relief, as long as its less than inhale. Its like my body just wants there to be a difference. I have it set at "1" and that seems to do the trick.

Re: Wife hates it

If she ever mentions it just ask her to not sleep for a week and report how she feels. That should drive the point home.

CPAP does go out of its way to resolve customer complaints!

I put in a negative review for the pillow at the time but it did not take, maybe it was too long or something I don't know. I whined and complained on here but did not put in a negative review elsewhere, as I said the forum has done a lot for me and that was free. I just vented a few times. The pill...

Re: Buyer Beware BBB Rates Cpap.com with an F

Johnny, the product is opened now as I took the pillow cover to get something for the $60 I spent. Let me know if you still want the pillow back. Its sitting on my floor so I am not sure if you can resell it as its opened now, your call. As far as my business like I said all along I just wanted to h...

Re: Buyer Beware BBB Rates Cpap.com with an F

I would agree with that. I would still be using their service and recommending it myself had the incident with the pillow not occurred despite whatever anyone else has had happen. In fact I had issues with cpap.com before and they always took care of it. This last time however they told me if the pr...
