Had this new machine for a week and it’s driving me crazy. I can hear it “whine” with every breath I take!
Is this normal?

Re: Ready to throw away CPAP!!!
I think with any nasal mask my mouth will still open so I will get that nasty red face every morning telling me my mask doesn't fit. Going to call my supplier tomorrow to try both the Qattro One and the F20 with foam. Thanks so much everyone. Can always count on good answers in this forum. Marilyn

Looking for a specific mask.....
I am using Airfit F10 nasal pillows.
Had a sleep study done on Saturday and they said I am breathing through my mouth often.
I wake up with a very sore throat and drooling.
They told me there was a NASAL PILLOW mask that also covered the mouth.
Anyone know the name?

Sorry to post about such a gross subject but i'm stumped. I was using a full face mask but got too much leaking and uncomfortable. Been using Nasal Pillows for the past 4 months or so....maybe 6 months. Every morning when I wake up I was a stringy scum on my lips and after I have been up for a while...

Settings for Resmed S9 Mask
Hi I hope someone can help me.
I was using a Full Face Mask and had the setting for "Full Face".
Now I'm using Swift FX Bella Nasal Pillows System.
I see two settings - one for "Nasal" and one for "Nasal Ultra" .. how do I know which one is best for my Nasal Pillow?
Thanks so much.
Marilyn

Re: Dreams?
I was always told if you're not dreaming, you're not sleeping.........I figured the crazy dreams are because I am sleeping so much better now...........I was sure everyone else would be too because of our good sleeping habits now!

Second question - sore head
I have been on CPAP for almost a year.
I am using a Full Face Mask and finding hat my head feels really sore in spots. My husband looked at my scalp and said it looks like small ingrown hairs or pimples.
Can this be from the strap across my head?
Thanks,
Marilyn
