Re: ResMed 11

Cpap time restarts at "noon". (As recorded by the cpap clock)
Can you reset the clock or your time zone to agree with your sleep time?
If not, don't worry--it will average out.
Your latest/current day will be wonky; but averages will be fairly accurate.

Re: CPAP making things worse

One of the hardest things about treating a sleep disorder is dealing with our anger. It is unfair to be afflicted with this condition. Cpap is the TREATMENT. Insurance is the means without which so many of us would be forced to continue to suffer. Cpap is good--insurance is a necessary evil. We do w...

Re: Why does heated tubing only come in 6+ ft lengths?

A hose hanger picks up the excess into a loop--up and out of the way.
A good rig will allow you to move around and roll over in bed.

Re: Shingles Vaccine and mask sensitivity

Robin only posted once. Back in November, 2023.
Chances are the sensitivity is long gone.
At least she was not trying to plug noclean . . .
I hate people who do that.

Re: Using CPAP with Covid

Going off CPAP while sick is foolish.

Re: Resmed Airsense 10- EXTRA Large Water Tank

The tank is designed to hold enough water for 8 hours,
unless your house is really dry--or your mouth hangs open for hours.

Re: Clearing nasal passage - Tips please.

It is fairly normal for one nostril to be stuffier than the other, and that switching sides is part of the usual function. We can safely deal with this natural cycle with mild products, if anything at all. Afrin (oxymetazoline) should be reserved only for extreme congestion-- (both nostrils, complet...

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.

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.
