It didn't do anything for me; tried for a week then sent it back.

Re: Mouth Tape That Actually Stays Put!?

I have been using kinesiology tape for about a year. Easy to remove, no residue. Bought on Amazon.

Re: SEVERE DRY EYES

I have the Manta Sleep Mask. It is reasonably priced and on Amazon. Also provides 100% blackout and the eye cups are very comfortable.

Re: Apria Data Breach

Not an Apria customer, thank goodness. However, my Medicare number was stolen and Medicare was billed and paid about $500 for Covid tests I neither requested nor received. This occurred between February and May of this year. I have been telling friends and family to closely check their Explanation o...

Re: Using tape on mouth

I wear a nasal cushion mask (DreamWear or ResMed N30i) and use kinesiology tape as it is gentle to remove. Been doing this for about 18 months with no problem whatsoever. I can’t speak about tape with a FFM.

Edit: Note to self…do not post until first cup of coffee is done. LOL

Re: Airfit N30i

I use an N30i and also use kinesiology tape across my mouth to keep it shut. Works brilliantly. I can’t use a full face mask and am thankful for the N30i and the DreamWear nasal cushion mask.

Re: I've Moved to CPAP

You’ve been given excellent advice and I wanted to chime in on my personal experience. Changing the APAP to CPAP was the best move. APAP was so disruptive as the pressure would shoot up and not go back down which woke me up and prevent good sleep. Looking at not just CPAP data in OSCAR but the repor...

One of my friends applies Olay Regenerist about 2-3 hours before bed. She uses an N20 mask and never had a problem.

Re: can i get dr. to order resmed for me

I believe all the doc has to do is to specify the make and model of the machine. This is what my sleep institute did when initially diagnosed and placed on CPAP therapy. They also wrote to mask script that stated “patient’s choice” or something similar.

Re: Bleep Eclipse Noise and Leaking

I stopped used the Eclipse because of problems similar to your own and went back to the N30i. I trialed the Eclipse this past summer and fell in love with it and experienced no problem whatsoever. When I received my order at the end of December is when problems started occurring where the Eclipse wo...
