Re: TMJ and Full Face Masks
I have TMJ also, I used the Forma FF mask due to the fact it helped with the mouth breathing, it has a lip at the chin but in the summer it's too hot. I switched to the Resmed AirFit P10 for Her, it's like wearing nothing, misses all those tender place on my jaw, I'm still a mouth breather but worki...

Re: Free masks less postage
I want to express my condolences at your loss. I'm sure the loss of a spouse is almost unbearable. I would like to have the Mirage Liberty masks. I have been wanting to try it, but hate to spend the money right now. I have been in treatment for less than two months, and have already purchased two m...

Re: H5I auto shut off when empty?
Check your hose. If the machine is turning on and off it could be the hose. I got this info from ResMed tech support, which I blew off, replace the H51, when it happened again I check the hose, sure enough the hose must of had a small defect, replaced it, been going great for the last 6 months, even...

Re: At my wits end
Hi, I have been using the Forma with the Anti leak strap for 5 months, the strap made a big improvement. I can't keep my mouth from opening while I sleep so I'm pretty much stuck with this mask. I find the mask to be quiet unless the hose is in front of the exit vents that are above the swivel, Next...

Re: Fundoplication surgery and CPAP use
Hi, I had this surgery in 1995, best thing I ever did, it was just being tested back then. Longevity of the surgery is approximately 10 years. I'm coming up on 20 years since the surgery, no reflux. It's a little tough right after the surgery but a warm cup of water when you eat is very helpful. I d...

Re: Very scared because I don't know what is going on
My machine was doing the same thing, had it replaced in July, worked fine. Last week the new machine started turning off again on me, I called Resmed asked if there was any know issues, said no, wanted to know if I wanted to talk to tech support, said sure. Fellow there started out treating me like ...

Just sent a note to Karen at Pad a Cheek
I ordered the Anti-Leak Strap from Pad a Cheek, used it last night, didn't wake up once, worked GREAT. I use a Forma FFM due to chin drop and the little leaks would wake me up all night long. Some nights I think I slept with my hand on the mask so I didn't wake up my hubby! I have tried other produc...

Re: S9 Stops and Starts
Several weeks ago my S9 Elite started doing the same thing, I was not having high leaks but did have the Smart Start turned on. I turned the Smart Start off but the machine kept stopping several times during the night. I know the mask was on and I had not gotten up or turned off the machine. DME gav...

Re: Jaw Dropping
Hi, I have been having the same problem, I would rather use nasal pillows but getting great results with the Forma Full Face Mask Fisher & Paykel, it has a small lip that fits under your chin just enough to keep your jaw from dropping. I tried their other model the FlexiFit HC431 but it leaked into ...

Re: Swift FX Pillows Maintenance
My pillows are lasting about the same, 2 weeks. After about 1week I put plumber O-rings on the barrels, it seems to help a bit as they start to collapse. I tried the Pad a cheek cozie, seemed like I had more leaks. I wash daily....germaphobe LOL
So lucky to have great insurance.
