Re: Getting discouraged....can't get a mask that won't leak!!!
I too have trouble with leaks. My best success has been to tie hose up with rubber band so it comes over my head. Invested in a buckwheat pillow that also made a world of difference

Re: My 90 days are up

Pillow for your head
After another irritating night with mask I have come to conclusion that a cpap pillow may be necessary. I am a mouth breather and mostly side sleeper the leaks created from tossing or turning need to end. Has anyone used a "cpap" pillow with the cutouts on the sides? Do they work? are they firm? jus...

Re: Oboma .. another term
As a business owner it is so sad to see the amount of lawyers and accountants who call themselves politicians the WE ELECT into office every year. My lawyer tells me daily you cant do that,my accountant says you can't afford that. The best part is both gladly stand with hands out and collect the fee...

humidifier question
I live in an area where there is still a bottled water shortage. There is still no distilled water on shelf. I have been using tap water run thru a charcoal filter, is there a better way to come close to distilled water?

Re: Finally a small victory
Thanks for support. I have not had the wow I feel great day yet. I have been sleep deprived for many years from snoring like a chain saw and work as well. I am very optimistic that therapy will work, for all good things take time.

Rant I feel taken advantage of
I feel very taken advantage of from my cpap supplier. I did follow advice and am using the DME with my sleep center for my first one. They are working with my insurance company and only renting the machine for 3 months then I have the privilege of buying unit at a reduced cost. The worst of it is th...
