Re: Next choice -- mask?
Hi: I'll probably be called to come to the DME (Apria, which seems to be beloved around here) hopefully Monday or Tuesday for the first consultation with a respiratory therapist. Since we have established that I will be getting an S9 Autoset with pressure range set to 6-11, and I mostly breathe thr...

Re: Going from ResMed S8 Auto ver1 to S9 Auto
Hello everyone. I have OSA and have been using CPAP treatment for approximately 4 years. I started out with a ResMed S8 Vantage Auto v1 with the Mirage mask (mouth and nose). When I started on CPAP treatment, I was 340lbs., had crushing sleepiness in the daytime, and constantly waking up with sore ...

Re: quattro headgear
I require a large quattro fx (cheaper than rhinoplasty ) , ; why does it always arrive with medium headgear ? The medium headgear causes me to age 20 years as I awake with bags under my "dreamy blue bedroom eyes " which are now slits, "lines on the mirror , lines on my face" ..... Thank you Don Hen...

Re: BiPAP working, but only partially.. ideas?
Greetings, I've been a user of CPAP/BiPAP for a while now, after a very long journey to get it to the point it is now. However, the subjective improvement as I measure tiredness and the other symptoms of sleep apnea is only about 40 to 50% better. While this is a very good thing compared to where I...

Re: S9 AutoSet vs. PRS1 Auto Hands On Comparison
Some time back, an S9 AutoSet showed up on my local Craigslist at a sufficiently low price, and I bought it. I promised to write a comparison with the PRS1 Auto that I already had. The gist of the comparison is not really all that exciting. Neither one has a significant clear advantage in my opinio...

Re: Mirage or Fx ?
Well, it's been 4 nights now & getting worse, not better. I'm beginning to have bad feelings for my mask. (Full-Face Quattro Fx) - It works/fits only when I am flat on my back, and when my jaw drops, it leaks. After a couple of hours the upper braces are pinching my eyes closed. I almost flung it a...
