I also use the Dreamwear gel pillows. I love them and they dont leak unless I twist my head instead of lifting and turning. Great comfortable mask. I just wish the headgear had one extra strap. It always seems to slide up on the back of my head

I will not be working while I heal. I do alot of heavy lifting and crawling under trucks to work on them. I'm taking a week off at minimum. Doctor told me 3 weeks to prevent nose bleeds, but we'll see how it goes. Thanks for all your advice/info

thanks for your responses. It makes sense to not use it. I am required to use it for my CDL license. I guess I'll call my provider and let them know I wont be using it.

for those who had the septoplasty while using cpap, were you able to use your machine after the surgery? I'm having the procedure done on Monday and I am wondering if I'll need my machine, or need to upgrade to a FF mask until I heal. currently using Dreamwear gel pillows

thanks for the info. it's good to have a general idea what to expect.

I am scheduled for a Septoplasty procedure next week and I have a question for anyone that has had Septoplasty done. My question is, How did you use your CPAP machine after the procedure? I currently use nasal pillows but I doubt I'll be able to use them after the surgery. Do you just not use it or ...

Just had an Endoscope today. I was told to bring my Cpap machine with me. When I arrived, the front desk asked me if I brought it and I said yes. They took me back to the prep area and the nurse asked me if that was my Cpap and I said yes. She put it under the bed and said I wouldnt be needing it an...

I just received my new Dreamwear mask with the new Gel pillows. I have been using a nasal mask and have always wanted to try the Dreamwear mask. I recently developed problems with it leaking all of a sudden. tried for a few days to resolve the problem but couldnt. So once I read about the Gel pillow...

I recently had the same issue with my 10mo old Air Sense 10. I took it to my DME and we tried a new power cord and it turned back on. He told me he has had a few power cords go bad on these units

OK, here's my info. I hope I did this correctly

sorry, thought it was public. lets try this again

OK, I went back and grabbed last weeks Stats from sleepyhead. here it is.. It's only my second week on Cpap. https://photos-4.dropbox.com/t/2/AAD77rtgbEsN_jXhM2-8rK4_qRH4jKo87QuSg0J9_N5bpg/12/47566836/png/32x32/1/_/1/2/screenshot-20151120-000505.png/EKfLvSQYj0IgBygH/NisODp_SyLKYEMV1qssFm1U7TymeszSGl...

Did you find the page on organizing and posting Sleepyhead charts- https://sleep.tnet.com/resources/sleepyhead ? If you can post a typical night, you can get some good input. It's set from 5-20 right now. This is a so-called wide-open pressure range. With some help on analyzing your SH reports, you...

I have an Airsense 10 auto and it is constantly changing. why would the pressure increase so high? What is your pressure range setting - minimum and maximum pressure? My prescribing doctor doesnt have an appt available until January.. I have a very good sleep doctor, but I found the experts in this...

I'm new to the CPAP machine and I've been doing well with it. I get 6-7 hours a night using the unit. However, I always seem to be awakened in the middle of the night with high pressures. Last night it had my mouth blown up like a balloon. My cheeks were bulging out and it woke me right up. I have a...
