Re: SOLUTION for skin irritation caused from CPAP machine
I got a sore on the bridge of my nose and used some t-shirt fabric to make a cover for where it touches my skin.

Re: Encore Basic erasing waveforms
Mine had just started doing this. The last time(a couple of days ago) I loaded my data on my card and reviewed it on Encore Basic it was all there but today I loaded it on my card and none of the waveform was there,just a blank page where it used to be.

Re: Have you tried RemZzzs
Do you make them like the RemZzzs or do you make them where they are strapped on? Do they not shift when you move around?

Re: Anyone let your spouse wear your hose?
Are you sure the question isn't about weighing the risks of him wearing your hose or him wearing a pillow tightly over his face until he stops snoring. LOL,you have obviously slept with a snorer. Sometimes it crosses my mind,jk! The major risk is that his face size will screw up your mask. Use an o...

Anyone let your spouse wear your hose?
I know this is an odd question but I would like my husband to get a sleep study because his snoring is very disturbing. He hasn't said no but getting him to actually do it is another thing. Is there any harm in making him use my machine for a night and see the results in the data and maybe it would ...

Re: Might just want to keep using that machine...
I honestly would not wait on an appointment in the near future!! I would call and explain things to the doctors office and if they can't see him immediately I would take him to the ER. If it is a stroke,time is very crucial. If caught early,things can usually be reversed. That is just what I would d...

Re: Vitamin D level Poll
Also.. I read an interesting article that said vitamin D is not even a vitamin it's a hormone and it does play a role in regulating sleep. Here is a quote from the article, "Low D goofs up sleep. Most of the neurological problems my patients have are not directly related to D hormone, they ar...

Re: little sleep
You could always have something by your bed like a book or the TV so you can keep the mask on and still be compliant.

Re: Feels like machine is not working
it is set at auto with pressure 5-10 and I can feel it when I pull it away from my face. Just wondering if this is normal.
