I wash my seal each night and it wore out after 6 weeks. I would suggest ordering a new one. It tends to wear out quickly.

Great advise Pugsy...will try it out tonight! Thanks.

So my AHI is at 0.8... never goes above 1. So the apnea's are under control just fine.. I called to ask them about what I could do to help with the aegrophagia and the doctor wanted a download of my data. Once they saw my data they came back with increasing the pressure to 15 so that goes against ev...

I have been suffering from aegophagia since stating CPAP about 40 days ago. My Auto Pap was set at 5-14 and I was averaging 13.8 each night.

Any ideas...

I did have headaches prior to start of treatment. Then when I started treatment I tried the nasal pillows and it was irritating my nose quite a bit and I was still having the headaches. I also had my humidity set to a temperature of only 74 with the other setting at 3. I got a different mask to help...

Ok..got my profile reset.

This should have all my equipment info on it.

Thanks for the info. That is who I went to... I think I just had a bad person there. She was very dismissive and not very helpful and intimidating. How many masks were you able to try when you fist got diagnosed? I have been using my unit for 2 weeks now. They first gave me the ResMed S9 Escape. I r...
