Re: It's all about the Bullies

The experience that the old timers bring to the table is invaluable. It is not just about exchanges between posters "du jour." Newbies learn from old posts. I am a new member, and I read my way through pages and pages of posts before joining (and participating). Cranky, eccentric and "difficult" pe...

Re: can't find CPAP troubleshoot expert

Yeah, had read your post re humidity issues on the Pugsy's pointers sticky. Was a helpful affirmation that humidity level is an adjustment worth looking at. Every experienced CPAP user here who posts has helped us understand that getting it right is a process, not a moment.

Re: can't find CPAP troubleshoot expert

We know that the supposition that the humidity level is the problem may not be a fix, but we feel like we need to keep trying something to figure it out, clean filters, sinus rinsing, humidity adjust, bring it on. At times, it feels like shooting fish in a barrel, but at least we are trying somethin...

Re: can't find CPAP troubleshoot expert

The ResMed S-9 Autoset has an air filter which we are careful to regularly replace. Are there other filters (add-ones) that would help?

Re: can't find CPAP troubleshoot expert

Any ideas for ramping degrees to drop the humidity back? Like since the default on auto is 80%, try 1st redux to 70%? For...

can't find CPAP troubleshoot expert

I am trying to find a CPAP equipment expert to troubleshoot sinusitus problems my husband has which we we believe are related to his CPAP. He has been using CPAP for 7 years, started on Respironics REMstar M Series, supplied by DME. Upgraded to ResMed S-9 Autoset about two years ago under our own st...
