Re: Airsense 10 Humdifier Chamber

Re: Just amazed

Considering how my suffering has been reduced, I cannot fathom how much misery people with the high numbers must have felt before treatment; and I especially cannot comprehend some people's resistance to treatment.

Re: Reducing aerophagia?

It might be helpful it you change your subject line to include ASV to those users will be more likely to respond. I would have thought that this would be a problem with all positive-airway machines. Are you saying that this only happens with ASVs? However, without seeing all of them, I'd be careful...

Re: URGENT: OSA surgery and quality of life

I would recommend fixing the deviated septum and then give cpap another shot. Post some screen shots of your data and many here can help tune your machine to make it work. I have some problems caused by high pressure needs to treat my apnea. I have considered surgery but after getting details on the...

Re: Don't kill me. Weight loss has improved apnea.

Can't see anyone getting pissed about you getting better results with weight loss. My wife should be pissed she lost 115 lbs and no improvement. She was 286. Had gastric bypass and started using her cpap again because she was tired. Hasn't seen any improvement in apnea

Re: How often do you change water

I use almost all the water every night. If I sleep more than eight hours out odd dry when I get up. Never have dumped out out unless I'm cleaning it.

Re: Headgear

I'll post the part number of the strap later.

But all I did was cut the strap in half. Cut the two support straps the come with the chin strap in half and sewed the support strap halves to the big strap. I'll lay ur flat and take another pic
