Re: EPR Results

I agree. We are all different. I may be in the minority. We must search for what works for us. Start with the main stream and venture out. You can’t give up! :D

Re: EPR Results

I’m hoping my post may help someone. When your mouth is stuck together like glued leather it makes you not wanna CPAP.

EPR Results

Been using CPAP for about 7 months. I've experimented with masks and all kinds of settings on my machine. My biggest battle has been dry mouth. No, really leather mouth. Moved from pillow masks to nasal masks. Started using tape and it really helped. The tape solved it. Continue to watch YouTubes an...

I don't understand how anyone was expecting this to work or, more to the point, what they expect it to do, exactly.
That’s easy. Just go on YouTube and do a search. LOL

I want the lowest pressure possible to control my apnea consistently and minimize mouth leaks. Isn't that the goal?s
No, the goal is to get a restful night's sleep.
That comes to me by accomplishing “my” goal. See previous responses.

Re: I've Moved to CPAP

Another goal is to sleep soundly. Does your sleep with a fixed pressure leave you feeling more rested the next day? As for leaks, as long as they are not in Large Leak territory, they don’t matter except to the extent they wake you up or keep you awake. I agree 100%. My leaks were my biggest proble...

The goal is to avert as many apneas as possible... it's not a contest to see who can do it with the lowest pressure which can be counterproductive by itself. If you feel decent at a little bit more pressure, why not use it?
I agree 100%.

I'm talking about over a period of a week. I mean, I am shocked at what a constant pressure has done.

I've Moved to CPAP

After youtubing a lot. I have decided to quit APAP and move to CPAP. I have quit EPR and have no ramp. I noticed that I restricted my APAP down to 7-10. My Oscars didn't change much. I decided to go to static pressure of 9 and my results got better starting that night. Here's my question. Do I just ...

Re: V-COM Questions

Just to wrap some things up. V-COM sent me a postage paid return shipping label and I just got all my money back in my checking account. I can't ask for anything more. No scam here.

Actually, I did learn a thing or two. OR confirm a thing or two. Quit using APAP and keep using the mouth tape.

I would not go so far as to call them scammers. They have a 30 day money back guarantee. But maybe I’m too trusting.

Re: V-COM Questions

All Kidding and sarcasm aside, are there certain guidelines that should be followed to maximize the effectiveness of the VCOM?
