Re: Where can I order mirage activa mask/headgear without a prescription?

I need the part that holds the cushion. That's the mask frame? I ask because I've always been told it's the headgear but a lot of places say headgear and only sell the strap.

Where can I order mirage activa mask/headgear without a prescription?

I cant find it anywhere and my prescription has lapsed. The only places I could find it to buy were asking for a prescription. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

How do I test to figure out the pressure to use?

I've been prescribed 10.0 pressure . That was 8 years ago and on a different cpap. With this new cpap it seems like the pressure needs to be adjusted a bit. My old one had a test mode where I could select a range (like 8.0 to 15.0) and it would "test" throughout the night for a period of time to try...

Stress/Depression/Anxiety/Tiredness w/ new CPAP... whats going on?

I'm having issues with feeling tired waking up. My old cpap would force air into my nasal mask to make me breathe when I was having an "episode". I've noticed this CPAP doesn't do that, more it seems like it's just a constant pressure of airflow, which seems to be causing more episodes. I'm experien...

Re: Cheapest place to buy NEW Philips Respironics DreamStation Auto CPAP

So I have a couple of questions about the cpap I ordered 1) where can I find the specific model number to put in my signature? Is "Resmed S10 Airsense autoset with EPR and integrated heated humidifier" at "10.0 pressure" enough information? 2) I'm having issues with feeling tired waking up. My old ...

ResMed Airsense 10 humidifier making "bubbling" noise

Hey guys. My cpap is only a month old and I've been experimenting with the humidifier settings. It's been really dry here so I cranked it up all the way. It was working extremely well and was getting the best sleep I had in a month bc I could actually breathe. Then I woke up after about 5 hours to i...

How can I fix a pressure issue from home?

Re: Cheapest place to buy NEW Philips Respironics DreamStation Auto CPAP

The tubing may need to be replaced periodically anyway, depending on how rough you are with it. It isn't very expensive if you shop around. The ClimateLineAir tubing is needed if you want to run high humidity in a cool room, to prevent condensation. Otherwise, you can use whichever you prefer, and ...

Re: Cheapest place to buy NEW Philips Respironics DreamStation Auto CPAP

So this is the one you were talking about? Can I always buy tubing that isn't slimline or is slimline the way to go for this machine?

569 doesn't seem bad for a new one...
