Re: f20 issues

If no doctor has yet seen the new bump on your nose,
PLEASE make an appointment!
Not that it is anything bad, but if it is--the sooner, the better!
I have had cancer twice--both identified and treated soon enough for cures.
Time does not heal some things. Knowlege is way better.

Re: Nasal Pillow Masks (Nasal tube)

I always sleep better with my good ear buried in the pillow. I can still hear the train whistles--but the engines are muffled. However, my cpap is almost silent. So, it depends on your hearing and sensitivity to noise. Some folks will always need extraordinary means to attain peace. Good luck gettin...

It would be better if DeVillbiss had not backed away from respiratory products.

Since some reviews of the Airsense 11 have been lukewarm, if not critical . . .

Re: Resmed P10 Nasal pillows cracking/splitting on bottom rim

Tergazyme?
Yeah, I am also baffled.
It's best to stick with products recommended by
the manufacturer or by members of this forum.
I would put tergazyme on the short list of things to blame.

Re: Sticky: Distilled Water vs. bottled water vs tap water

Yes, it was locked.
I believe it is because many people are not aware of how incredibly hard local water can get,
and yet be completely safe to drink--even healthy, because, minerals.
Minerals which gunk up your cpap tank, water system, and your steam iron.

Re: Failed sleep study after 14 years on the hose

My original sleep studies were early in 2010, grandfathered in, because the clinic is not a Medicare provider. No mention has been made of another sleep study; and I am not foolish enough to bring it up myself. All my providers are aware that I KNOW what Medicare requires--or not. --or they will be ...

Re: Philips sales halted ==> cpap shortage?

It's only paranoia if they are really NOT out to get you.

In addition, if shortages are limited to Philips models; no biggie, really.

Re: Air Curve

Product upgrades follow the motivation for upgrades. Phones are frequently upgraded to increase sales, and use social pressure for that. They can get away with nearly infinite crap. Medical equipment generally follows life of the unit and available tech. They also are restricted by insurance bean co...

Re: Variable dwell time between breaths

It's totally fine to geek out over your therapy.
The more you know, etc.
It is possible to learn more about YOUR case than anyone else.
I am optimistic for your success.

Re: Dreamwear PR mask

The cross-section of one tube is much larger than the cross-section of both nostrils.
Unless your nose is really, REALLY BIG!
