Thanks DD.

I'm not suggesting the pad-a-cheek caused my skin issue. My only point is that the issue did not clear up after using the p-a-c, like I hoped it would.

Thanks. I plan to make an appt., but I was just curious if others had similar experiences.

I've used a Quattro FX FFM for the past 2 years with relatively few issues. However, about 3 months ago, I started noticing red lines on both sides of my nose where the mask makes contact with my face. Up to that point, I did not use a liner. Once I started noticing the redness, I began applying moi...

Thanks Pugsy.

I figured you would know .

So I'm 3 1/2 months into my CPAP therapy and I have to say, things are going well. My sleep has gotten better (fewer wake-ups) and my Avg. AHI has been below 4 for the last month. However, when I went to upload my SD card data onto Sleepy Head thoday, I noticed I am now missing nearly 5 weeks of dat...

So I really like my Quattro FX FFM. For the entire first month, I had no problems with leaks of any kind. Now, into my second month, I get leaks at the cushion around the nose bridge area whenever I sleep on my side. These leaks tend to blow up into my eyes and become quite annoying. I tried tighten...

Jeff, Pugsy: Thanks so much for your replies. Jeff, Did you make any adjustments (I.e. pressure, mask, machine-type) to see those kind of improvements, or did it just take time? Pugsy, I really appreciate your analysis of my data. I'm going to my sleep Doc next week for my first follow up since usin...

So here's some data on 3 of my bad nights. This is my first shot at Photobucket, so I hope it works. http://i1293.photobucket.com/albums/b598/rtanner9/918Graphs_zpsfb0718e9.jpg http://i1293.photobucket.com/albums/b598/rtanner9/916Graphs_zps94d9342b.jpg http://i1293.photobucket.com/albums/b598/rtanne...

Thanks Bob. That is really good to hear. I'm glad you've had a positive experience. I hope to get there eventually.

Thanks, I will try to post some data this evening, when I get home from work.

So I'm 20+ days into my therapy. I use a straight CPAP, 7 pressure and get about 6.5 hours of sleep a night with it. I feel somewhat better throughout the day, but nothing miraculous. The mask does not bother much at all, except when I have an itch on my face, under my mask. My main concern is my AH...

Just got it. What do you like about it?

Oops. I guess the humidifier I have is heated. Please ignore my post above.

First, just a note of thanks to everyone who steered me in the right direction in getting my first CPAP. Thanks to all of your advice, I avoided getting the default brick and found a DME that provided the ResMed S9 Elite. I'm an information junkie, so I love reading my numbers every morning to see h...

Thanks everyone. The way I understand it, my doc would have to prescribe an Auto, otherwise I'm going to get a straight CPAP. This from speaking with the (DME) associate, who was very helpful and made clear this was just her opinion, not for certain. Based on all the feedback above, the Auto seems t...
