Anew FF Leaks Like a Screen Door on a Submarine

I received my Anew on Friday and experienced the exact same problem. I'll try one more time to see if I can make sense of it. I ordered the medium as well but maybe is just too big or something? I just looked at the sizing chart that is listed now and my nasal width is 1 1/2" and hight is 3 1/4". Th...

Re: Respironics Wisp - First Impressions

I have been using the Wisp for about a week now, and I really like it. I was using a Quattro FX but was having leak issues. I was never able to use the auto setting because I would wake up in the middle of the night with major leaks. Now for the past 2 nights I have used auto set at 9 to 16 and have...

Re: New Wisp nasal mask in stock at cpap.com

I have finally been able to use my new Wisp and love it! I have been using the Quattro FX but had problems with leaks. I was a mouth breather, but I think I have been successful in training myself to keep it closed. So far so good, very comfortable even side sleeping doesn't seem to be an issue.

Re: New Wisp nasal mask in stock at cpap.com

I received mine yesterday, but also came down with a head/sinus cold go figure. I really think it will work much better then the Quattro FX I have been using. Had it on for about 4 hours before I had to take it off, too stuffed up and coughing. From the short time I did have it on, very comfortable ...

Re: SLEEP NUMBER MATTRESS OWNERS - WHICH SERIES MODEL?

We have had a sleep number for about 5 years now and really don't have anything bad to say. It is a middle of the road king size and though it was expensive, so is any other premium king size. The way I look at its there is nothing to wear out and sag or indent like a regular mattress. My wife likes...

Re: New to the CPAP world

Last night I set it back to 10.5 and had a really good night, AHI of 1.1, so I think I will leave it at that. I woke this morning feeling well rested.
Happy New Year!

Re: New to the CPAP world

Well i have been at it for a little over two months and am getting used to it now. The first month was a little difficult, but I knew I had to stick with it. My biggest complaint is just mask adjustment. The Quattro FX works but it had its good and bad days. I think I will try a regular Quattro for ...

Re: 1st night with the Quattro FX

Yeah I have had the same problem with waking up with an extremely dry mouth the last few nights. Got to find a solution to that ASAP.

Re: Quattro FX face mask ?

I just started CPAP and I've been using a Quattro FX for a week and have had no issues. Sounds like you just have it too tight. I put mine on so it was just tight enough to not leak just sitting, then I would lay down and move around a little and adjust as needed. No lines on my face in the morning.

Re: New to the CPAP world

First thing I did was turn off the epr. It just didn't feel good, I like the feeling of air all the time. Mask fit good after a few adjustments. It took a while to fall a sleep but once I did I think I only woke up once, and that was because my mouth was dry. I had the humidity set at 3 and all nigh...

New to the CPAP world

Newbie here just was diagnosed with severe apnea. I had my second sleep study done and my pressure will be a 10. My Dr was very helpful and informative. I have to say I think having a positive attitude about treatment is crucial. I went in both times with a great attitude and actually enjoyed the fu...
