Up late and Centrals? Coincidence?
Bottom Line Up Front: Does your level of tiredness affect your rate of centrals // can switching to nasal pillows increase centrals?? Details: Started CPAP in March 11. I recently (about a month ago) switched to the Swift FX nasal pillow from the Comfort Gel [lots of little leaks and discomfort were...

Re: I believe I am addicted.........
I got it from cpap.com. Probably paid too much but I wanted an easy answer and convenient solution. It work great for 3 nights (no heat on the humidifier to save batt life).

Re: leaks during back sleeping
I've noticed it is important to lift my head off the pillow readjust the mask and then lay back down. When you just roll over the head band gets pushed up a little bit. Also. Try new cushions. I noticed after about three weeks my cushions would start to leak a little bit. I replaced the cushions and...

Re: Sleep doc says I'm a star
Maybe there is something in the name... RemSTAR. I think we could start a conspiracy theory

Re: Sleep doc says I'm a star
How funny... I saw my doc yesterday for my 1 month visit and the nurse said I was the gold star winner (31 out of 31 days, avg 7:35 a night).
I wonder if this is an industry term....?

Re: leaks during back sleeping
Leaking around your pillows, or through your mouth? Do you feel it, or is it showing up in the numbers? Just starting out on your back or when you roll from side/stomach to your back, or both?

Re: I believe I am addicted.........
Yes I was at the race! It was an incredible finish. I'm a Harvick #29 fan, and after he blew a motor on Saturday I was glad to see he was in the thick of it Sunday!
Two years in a row of tornados and heavy rain has got to stop maybe next year! ( Now I sound like a Cubs fan )

Re: I believe I am addicted.........
Just returned from a 4 day trip to Talladega staying in a RV. Can't explain how good it was to be refreshed. Just over a month now, and that battery was the best! The people next to us had the LOUDEST generator ever. Had to scream to hear each other outside that first day, and he ran it ALL night. A...

Re: Pimples and blocked poors
After my first two nights, the bridge of my nose hurt so bad I was concerned about the future of Cpap and Me. Then I realized it was a giant zit forming there, felt like I was back in highschool! I had some Clinque for Men face wash (came in a gift set from my wife) and I started using it every nigh...

Re: CPAP & Rosacea
Eric, By all means the CPAP could be the cause. Either as a primary reason or through a secondary condition. Since the exact cause for Rosacea is unknown, it would be foolish to discount anything as a possible cause. My wife suffers from Rosacea and recently it had become severe. She had changed mak...

Re: OT: Drinking water, suggestions please
Jeanette, I am in the same exact boat, ok not exactly, my drug of choice is Diet Dr Pepper. Prior to CPAP (3 weeks now) I was downing 7-8 a day, mostly to stay awake. During a hospital stay my wife got me a Vitamin water Zero. These taste great to me, have a ton of vitamins, and get this... are natu...

Re: OT - Curious how/why people chose their nickname
My pic is actually me shooting in Venice. My son (12) took this picture using a Lens Baby (if you're photographically inclined). He's my little apprentice, and quite a good little photographer himself.
