Re: OSA + CPAP + booze = ?

I get drunk most every Saturday night. I have used my mask and not. I didn't really notice a difference. I don't think that one night a week would matter much would it?

Re: Owie, blister on nostril

Wow you guys aren't kidding. Between the lanolin and the taping it to my face, I have not removed the mask for 2 nights straight.

Re: Owie, blister on nostril

I am getting the lanolin tonight. I have a similar issue in that I had a crack or something and I picked it so now I have a scab, hopefully it goes away. How much is a little lanolin, and can I put it on the nasal pillows or do I have to put it in my nose.

Re: New issue

Last night I woke up and it was around my neck. I had a stuffy nose so I image that is why I did that.

New issue

Okay so I have been on cpap for 21 days tonight. I am doing well, ahi average is .5, leak is very low almost zero. My issue is that I take my mask off at night. Not accidently, I pull it off. But, I apparently do this when I am still asleep and not yet fully conscious because I do not remember it. T...

Re: Barrel Cozzy by Pad a cheek

I would agree daily washing would be a pain, but I am getting over that as well, more like once a week.

Re: Barrel Cozzy by Pad a cheek

Ok, so got the cozy last night. And tried it out and what do you know I kept the mask on all night. Sweet. I woke up during the night more than normal, but who knows why. The cozy did seem to make the mask more comfy, and I didn't drown in the middle of the night even though my bedroom hit 50 degree...

Barrel Cozzy by Pad a cheek

Ok I like my bedroom cold, and by cold I mean below 60 degrees. Obviously this leads to rain out in the mask. What I am wondering is given my bedroom is so cold, is it worth the money to get the cozzy hoping that it will fix the rain out on the few nights a week that I have it?

Hello

I am a newb. I was diagnosed about 2 weeks ago, and have had my S9 ELITE for a week yesterday. While I won't say that I am in love with it, nor am I happy about having sleep apnea, I am glad that I now have hope to taking my life back. I have been adjusting well all said. In the first week, I only m...
