Re: Need a New Machine....Which one?

Just an update. I decided to go with the Resmed over the Respironics. Heated tubing, same mask. Set everything up the way it was on my PRS1. Low and behold I didn't really notice many differences. I slept well, don't have any results to share because of some date issue,which I worked out and should ...

Online CPAP - North of the Border

There seems to be quite a few CPAP providers in Canada. Does anybody have a preference? Good experiences or Bad to share?

Thanks

Re: Need a New Machine....Which one?

A loaner would be a good idea, not sure if I can get one or not. I think I will just try it out, it did not take long for me to get used to this 12 years ago. I expect the same trying the new machine

Re: Need a New Machine....Which one?

Again thank you for your feed back.

Feels like I am going to do some more research on the machines but am leaning towards trying something new

Re: Need a New Machine....Which one?

Thanks for the feed back. I do like the exhale relief, but I am so used to using it I am not sure what it is like without. Does Resmed do it differently? Better or worse? I do like to try new things, honestly that is what has me most intrigued about having a choice this time around. Even if I stick ...

Re: Need a New Machine....Which one?

Thanks, I was leaning towards a heated hose anyway. I like to have lots of things to adjust so hose temperature is a welcome addition :lol:

Need a New Machine....Which one?

Hello, its been a long time since I frequented the forums here. When I started treatment in 2006 this forum was fantastic and really helped me get started on the right foot. Browsing through the forum posts I see the quality of the forum is still in tact. I am starting to look at replacement machine...

Re: PRS1 New User Malfunction or Not?

The answer to the original question is NOT, last nights data showed up on both the 7 and 30 day averages. Pugz was right after all. I did have a chance tonight to load sleepyhead and was just looking at the zoomed in flow charts. Although the overall numbers look good, the breath by breath looks int...

Re: Do I need a humidifier?

I have been off and on with my humidifier in the past. I went more than a year without completely and very rarely take with me when I travel. Based on my experience I found I was much more dry and conjested when I didn't use. Having said that I live in a relatively dry climate which obviously has a ...

Re: PRS1 New User Malfunction or Not?

Pugz - I looked at it fairly early in the morning, so it is probably like you suggested too early to post, when I get home I will comfirm for sure. Janknitz - As for how it went, I think it went well. I didn't have any issues waking up or uncomfrtable breathing or any other way, I felt well rested, ...

PRS1 New User Malfunction or Not?

Hi, I picked up a replacement CPAP PRS1 yesterday and am trying out a new mask. Previously I used an Mseries and had very consistent results for AHI ~ 1.6, Mask Leak 22 l/min, 90% Pressure ~ 10 cm H2O. I was curious to see what the results were last night with the new machine and the new mask. I sho...
