Where do you put the hose when sleeping with the P10 - only tried N30i previously

Hi All, As some of you know, I'm new to the whole CPAP/APAP thing. Have been using the trial Airsense 10 Autoset For Her for about 3 weeks. I initially picked it up and got the N30i with it. I liked it, though I found my seal was inconsistent - usually there was a reasonable amount of leak, but some...

Re: Extended warranty worth it for a new APAP?

Thank you both! I will pass on the extended warranty then. Figured they were quite reliable based on how long people keep these machines for. I have another question - will update the original post too, but I also notice a charge for "Wireless Activation for Compliance Monitoring" for $50. This isn'...

Extended warranty and wireless activation worth it for a new APAP?

Hi All, I've got 2 quick questions for all you pros. 1) Just wondering if people consider getting the extended warranty on a brand new unit worth it? I'm going through insurance, and just found out I'm covered for the unit, but they don't cover the extended warranty that the retailer is providing ($...

Re: Question regarding diagnosis and Airsense 10 Auto FOR HER

Thanks for the great words :) Yeah the autoset for her seems like a very popular machine, so I'm pretty relieved and happy going into this. Luckily, they have one of them that they're keeping aside for me as a trial machine, so I get to use that one before I buy the machine myself - awesome. Lucked ...

Re: Question regarding diagnosis and Airsense 10 Auto FOR HER

Thanks folks! I've sent the quote to my insurance company and have booked a trial appointment for today, so I'll be trying it out tonight, and will probably try a nasal mask. I'll go with the for her option, and see how it is - maybe I won't even want the faceplate :) Here's hoping to see some resul...

Re: Question regarding diagnosis and Airsense 10 Auto FOR HER

Also, to add, I have facial hair - I keep a beard, though I usually keep it pretty trimmed down to a couple mm.

Re: Question regarding diagnosis and Airsense 10 Auto FOR HER

@Pugsy, you're awesome. This is exactly the kind of info I was hoping to get from the guru's here :) So it looks like that may be my only option, and I guess I can use the APAP functionality of the For Her model if needed, but my guess is they will program it for CPAP use? My prescription says 5-15 ...

Question regarding diagnosis and Airsense 10 Auto FOR HER

Hi All, I had a question and was hoping someone knowledgeable on the topic might be able to help chime in. First off, I'm a male, in my 30's, and live in Toronto. I recently took a sleep study and was diagnosed with severe sleep apnea (just borderline, about 39 AHI). When I went in for the consultat...
