Re: Anyone know if PR System one Humidifier
Not the top but on the chamber itself. There's that hole in the middle of it. I know the humidifier is working because there's no water in the chamber in the morning but my mouth is incredibly dry. Is there a remedy for this. Might my room be too cool? If so is there a way to combat this? Thanks.

Anyone know if PR System one Humidifier
is supposed to have a cap on it. I bought mine as an open box item from secondwindcpap and didn't really pay attention to the fact that there was no cap for the top of the tank. But I've had a horribly dry mouth the past few nights and am thinking it's the result of nor having a cap. Thanks.

Re: Bipap and Cpap Need advice.
I woke up with a charlie horse once. The others were actually due to the mask leaking. So I would shut the machine off and try to readjust. Any idea how I can cut those down? And again thank you guys for all your help. Especially you pugsy. One thousand thank you's

Re: Bipap and Cpap Need advice.
Yeah I'm pretty big 6 ft 1 around 280. I don't think I'm a back sleeper when I fall asleep it's on my side I've never paid attention to what position I'm in when I wake up. So I take it this is bad?

Re: Bipap and Cpap Need advice.
You were right about the pressures. So that means it's just Bipap and not auto? As far as the data from last night Sleepy Head says there is no other data on the card. So should I just use it again tonight and post the results tomorrow. Or am I just doing this incorrectly?

Re: Bipap and Cpap
Hi Nole, I'm not completely sure of all the parameters on that machine...but there are definitely more settings then your old cpap. And in answer to your question...yes it can be dumbed down to function as a standard BiPap and even all the way to cpap function. But before you do any of that, can yo...

Not in the traditional sense of it being uncomfortable, but I feel as though I am still having episodes, and the type of episode seemed different. It seemed worse. I'm just wondering if I can take the auto o...

Re: Buying a Bipap
Well I received my order from secondwindcpap.com. Great service ordered yesterday at 1 p.m. here today at 10:30 a.m. I got to admit that I'm pretty damn nervous having a giant cup strapped to my face. But here's hoping for a good night's sleep. Just wanted to thank you guys for the help. I'd never h...

My pressure is 19/15Goofproof wrote:Why did the doctor decide you needed the more costly BiPAP, usually you need to fail CPAP before going to BIPAP. Pressure over 15 cm is usually a need for bipap. Jim
