Memory Cards....

Do I need a special memory card to use between my Intellipap Auto and SleepyHead or will any MC work?

Re: THE GREAT PILLOW EXCHANGE

I am looking for a Swift FX Med pillow. I have nothing to trade but would be willing to part with a few $$$ and pay for shipping.

Fx pillows...

I received my normal monthly delivery from my DME. It seems that on both sets of pillows that the left side tends to "flutter". These are the same size that I always receive. Any idea as to the cause of this.?

Re: Intellipap Auto help

I realized this morning that my power cord for my camera works. 1 awful night was better than 8.

Intellipap Auto help

Going on a cruise tomorrow. Unpacked my machine at the hotel tonight and realized I forgot to pack my power cord. Does anyone know where I can get a power cord on a Sunday in Baltimore, MD?

Pressure Question

Intellipap Auto. Last 30 days, 95th percentile is 8.5, 90th percentile is 8.0. AHI is 7. Machine minimum pressure set to 4 and max set to 12. I have read that standard rule is 2 above and below 95th percentile. Is that accurate? Should I adjust me machine to 6.5 and 10.5?

Re: OT: Electronic Medical Records

My PCP has gone electronic. He even submits prescriptions by clicking a button. I like it because given the placement on where his monitor is, I can see (and read) everything.

Re: Travel Advice

I don't care if people recognize the machine as CPAP and I am not embarrassed that I need it. It is a violation of my privacy. If we have TSO clerks announcing "we have a CPAP coming through", what stops them from announcing "we have someone with a colostomy bag coming thru" or "we have HIV meds co...

Re: Travel Advice

How do they handle this dissemination of information? I would think that depending on how this was handled, it could be a HIPAA violation. I understand that if I tell the TSA clerk that is not a violation. I don't want my medical condition being announced to all those going thru the "security" proc...

Re: Travel Advice

I have traveled a great deal with my machine. My Respironics bag is nice in that I can unzip it and expose the machine in the bin. There are usually security attendants before the x-ray machine and they are the ones I casually and with an upbeat attitude (versus anxiety or strained voice) mention I...

Re: Anyone taken Nuvigil?

I, too, have been on Provigil but can't remember the dosage.... Didn't help me at all-still felt like taking a nap around 1:00 PM everyday! I told my doctor that if this was what 3rd shift workers used to keep them awake-I felt sorry for them!!! However, for some reason, and I have no idea why--I s...

Re: Papillow

I have the CPAP Pillow from Countour Products and love it. I was having a difficult time sleeping on my side with my regular pillow. I can't sleep without it now. We are traveling for 4 days and I am checking a bag instead of only using a carryon so that I can take my pillow.

Mirage Swift II Nasal Pillows

I only use the Small size, but when my DME orders for me, I get Small, Med and Large. Anyone want to trade M's and L's for some S's. I have 2 Mediums and 2 Larges.
