Re: Water problems

It appears to be simply the resmed auto set - hoping there are no hidden model numbers haha. Thank you for the advice - so helpful!

Pressure

Do you fall asleep right away with your machine on? Or do you read or play on your phone before going to sleep? I find that by the time I am ready to sleep that my pressure is ramped up and is blowing my ears out and hurts. I don't know if it's right to do, but I shut it off and restart it. I decide...

Re: Water problems

Thank you! I use a Quattro mask and a resmed machine. My hose is not heated. Is a cozy simply insulation? My father is a plumber so I am sure I could grab some correct size pipe insulation from him. Unless I am wrong. Also, would I cut them into small pieces for bending or?

Does anyone know why this would happen, especially after several hours of usage ( and subsequently drainage of my...

Re: Newbie would like to hear success stories, please.

Only been using for just over a month. I have been "ridiculously compliant" according to the company that monitors my usage. I sleep just about every night without taking it off at all - for 8 or more hours. Some nights less. But just about always 4 or more. I feel less depressed - I've been on depr...
