Looking forward to new mask!

Post by fredpb » Tue Aug 14, 2007 7:25 pm

My DME gave me an uncomfortable Respironics mask, then got me one like the "Mirage"....LOL... a cheapy, brand called Probasics. This was totally unusable, and now he won't return my calls!

So I ordered a Resmed FF Mirage from cpap.com! The online sizing guide indicated this is the only one that would fit.

The forum and reviews speak favorably about this mask, so I have high hopes.

I am leasing my machine via Medicare. Is it possible to change DME mid stream?

Others have reported changing while leasing, but I'm not sure if it was Medicare. I know Slinky changed hers to a new one she's happy with. You might want to PM her. Also, if you post something entitled like this "How Do I Fire My DME while leasing?" you may get the info you need.
