I have mentioned this issue in one of my previous posts (about something else) but I'd like to get more details about it. I wonder if it is normal to hear Darth Vader sound coming from the S9 Autoset at pressure from 10-11 cm H2O whenever you inhale. I tried to find out where the sound originated fr...

Thanks!

I'd like to obtain the latest Rescan software. Wonder if anyone here could PM me the link. Thank you very much!

Well, I've heard that some S9's DO make more noise than they're supposed to, and while I can't explain the situation properly as I'm not up on it, wait for Pugsy (or someone else knowledgable about it) to come in and do that. You should not have to put up with it - I believe it's some kind of rando...

I apologize in advance for writing this post, as it's not really asking for help nor is useful. However, today, my feelings today are the worst since I started CPAP, and I feel I really need to vent. To give you a background, I am a graduate student in a chemistry program in a very prestigious unive...

I used Walgreen's self-adhesive 3" bandage as home-made chin strap last night, and I found that it worked very well despite the sticky feeling on my face I just wonder whether it is reusable, and if so, how long it lasts and how to clean it. Also, I have to use a safety pin to hold both ends of the ...

I am living in a small cottage in the backyard of my landlord's house. Just a few days ago, my landlord got a new BBQ stove and he has been having a BBQ feast everyday. Whenever he does that, the smell gets into my cottage. While it is not an intense smell (the stove is 10 meters from my house), I a...

I am looking to fire my current doctor and find a new one. Does anyone here happen to have an experience with any sleep doctor in San Francisco or Berkeley (or any neighborhood closeby)? I try to find out on my own via internet but don't seem to have any luck If you are not comfortable posting the ...

I am currently using Resmed S8 Elite II and I found that my leak alarm goes off for an unknown reason. Usually this happens when I try to go back to sleep in early morning. The alarm will go off whenever I am about to fall into a deep sleep (which could be when my breathing slows down). However, whe...

Thanks for all the responses! Just to clarify, can the doctor just write "CPAP" on the prescription without any other information (ie. pressure, add humidifier, etc)? I think it'd be easier to get my psychiatrist to write a prescription by just telling her my old machine broke and I am very depresse...

I'm sorry if this post seems contradictory to my previous post (about not using prescription to buy a used CPAP). Turns out secondwindcpap.com also needs a prescription, so I need to go get one from my doctor. I want to get S9 Autoset because a lot of people use it and love it (not to mention the fu...

Hi, I just bought a used S9 autoset from secondwindcpap.com because my old CPAP is just so noisy I cannot stand it anymore (old + out of warranty + no DME too). Since the purchase didn't require a prescription, I wonder if this would give me a trouble with my sleep doctor, given that formally any CP...

I actually asked this question before but there is still a problem with my humidifier, so I am going to ask a little differently: is it normal for a humidifier to make this type of sound (like "breathing-in" sound whenever you inhale)? I know I might sound dumb here, but I figure maybe the reason I ...
