Re: Filter question

It wasn't visibly dirty, but I tapped it and a good bit of white dust came off it. I guess it's doing it's job! Yeah, I have it on my night stand, but things are a little dusty, not bad, but a bit. If I have time to stop at the store and get a small filter to set in there, I think I will, but I won'...

Filter question

Hi there: So, I did this silly/stupid thing yesterday. I was packing up my machine to take it to my 1 mo recheck and checked the filter. Of course it was disgusting, so I took it out (I think I threw it away, but not totally sure of that), packed up the machine and went to the appointment. Fast forw...

Re: Silly question from a newbie

@ Sheriff Buford - I never knew that was a symptom of thyroid issues. If it keeps up, I'll ask about it for sure. @ Pugsy - That's kind of what I'm thinking too. It wouldn't be the first time some stray saline has made it's way out hours later. Though it's usually in the form of an ill-timed drip at...

I was a regular netti pot user before therapy and have continued since starting (actually bumped up to 2x a day most days since starting). Here's my questi...

Re: Pillows for full face mask

Yes, I sleep with my mask hanging off the pillow. It's okay, I'm sleeping, but I laid down without the mask to talk with my hubby last night and realized how much I miss the "ease" of that moment. But, I'm not going to trade that for the good sleep I've been getting since starting on the machine. Ju...

Pillows for full face mask

Hi all: First time poster - 2 week CPAP user. I'm recently diagnosed and enjoying pretty great success with S9 elite and Comfort Gel full fase nasal mask. The only thing I truly miss about "before" is getting all snuggled down in my pillow to go to sleep. (I'm a side sleeper, almost exclusively) I'm...
