Re: Arghhh!!!! Brevida problem- am I alone?

Arghhh!!!! Brevida problem- am I alone?

So my first one, which WAS wonderful, had a split in the short tube that attached to the elbow form after two weeks. So I get a replacement, and that has a pinhole leak in it at the same place, just below the col...

Does the strap across the forehead and nose-bridge-thingie help keep the mask on squarely? I'm a thrasher with unmanly, sensitive skin, and I am hoping to find a na...

New to CPAP- need nasal cushion help

Hi all, I'm new to the whole CPAP thing, having been diagnosed with severe sleep apnea- 69 events/hr and average of 20 secs per event. My doctor seemed surprised I was alive... ANYHOW- I've been trialling masks for a week now- originally with a Resmed Airfit N20, which I could sleep with, but felt l...
