Yes, very much so, I lost a chinstrap to the tiny tigers and now keep my stuff in the 'pap machine's travel bag or covered up somehow.

Hello all, I just had my first night with my new SwiftFX and I LOVE this mask. My question is, is it common to have to bump up the humidity on the nasal pillows? I have the PR Remstar Auto A-flex and on my last mask I ran it at 2 and last night I found I had to bump it up to 4 before it felt comfort...

Last night I was helping my daughter study for her Physics mid-term today. Had the table covered with books, scratch paper, pencils, calculators, etc. Cat #1 decided to see what all the buzz was about, so she jumped up on the table, walked around sniffing and then lay down right where were working ...

Awesome job on the one year mark! My one year mark is this November as well, and like you, I've noticed some changes for the better. I too have some mood disorders and now that I've ironed out some of the cpap issues, I've noticed that my ADD and depression has gotten way better. Whenever I got tire...

Hello, Poetry Lovers. Today we're going to hear a song by Larry Groce, entitled:

"Junk Food Junkie

Oh my word, I haven't heard or thought about that song since I had hair......

I just wanted to thank all of you for awesome and important tips for when I get my Swift. Now I have a tad more to add to my arsenal of information.

Thanks for the help so far guys! Definitely going to put some lanolish cream on my list! And hoping, I tried taping my mouth shut for a while too, fun stuff eh? I've lost a few teeth in a row and it was making me a drooling mess (attractive, I know). I was already using a chin strap but found out I ...

Hello, I'm getting a new Swift FX nasal pillow mask on Tuesday (5 days from now), and am very excited. I started out with a Mirage full face mask (I believe that's the one), moved to a true blue nasal mask when my Medicare said I could get a new mask 6 months later, and it's almost been 6 months now...

I put the aloe gel on my face after I wash it, in a thin layer where the mask will be. I let it dry on my skin and as it does, it makes your skin kind of tacky. After the gel dries on my skin I put on my mask.

Hope this helps you.

Congrats to you! I've had my unit for 6 months, but only started using it again lately thanks to the folks here and their great information. I've only had about 8 nights full sleep with the CPAP (all in a row so far!), and I feel awesome. The tech I had at my sleep study told me to wait until I got ...

That's a nice mask. I used to think of my Quattro as a 'fighter pilot' mask, but that one's more like a pilot's. It's funny how I used to make up any excuse not to wear the darn thing, now I kind of look forward to going to sleep, and I've only really gotten about 8 days straight with the thing. Lik...

Best of luck to you tonight. I think it's great that you have the same tech and you can relax a bit in a setting like that.

lol, yes, CPAP is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay sexy, 'cpecially in my chin strap I saw the fireman mask at the medical supplier today, I'm glad there's a mask for everyone and your husband can use that!
It was fun looking at all the masks and knowing what they were, and what some of the others here use.

...hehehe...speaking of young, my 6 year old thinks it's 'awesome' that Dad has a Darth Vader mask.
