I want to visit the place and try them on like you try on shoes at a shoe store. I have a Remstar machine with a Swift FX head gear. Fo...

Remstar Plus ... Upgrade to Machine w/ Sleepyhead? How

Is the remstar plus a dumb machine? That's what they sent me. I read on this board about sleepyhead software and I do 't think it is compatable with my machine.

Am I allowed to return it for an upgrade? Is sleepyhead valuable? Is it worth the trouble to deal with the DME?

Thanks

When I awoke at 6:30 AM, i was in my usual no-CPAP fog (and a headache). Did that 90 mins counteract the 4 hours of CPAP Sleep? Still n...

Re: New To CPAP - Need Help Finding Mask, Reliable Dealer

What does not fit you with the Comfortgel Blue mask? This mask is similar to my mask which is Nasal Mirage SoftGel by Resmed (not full face). The Comfortgel Blue is by Respironics and full face. IMO, they are very simple and you can't go wrong with them except for size. My mask is NOT full face and...
