I started CPAP about a month ago and have definitely noticed a positive difference lately. Still feel a bit foggy, but my energy is up and the draining underlying fatigue has let up quite a bit. So I'm pretty jazzed at this point. I just got a Swift FX today and I'm looking forward to trying it tonight. I started out with the SleepWeaver which seems to be a good concept, but I had leak issues that would wake me off and on all night every night. The FX feels much less confining than the SW, but won't know till I give it a go. Hope I like it! I will post after a couple nights use.

I like my FX. Here is a video on about the FX Fitting, cleaning, and usage.

Re: Noob checking in, new mask tonight.
I got my Swift FX yesterday and I love it so far. It is like having no mask on and it is comfortable. I didn't have any leaks last night that I know of and I was suprized at how well the pillows stayed put. I took a nap this afternoon and put it on too as I knew I would fall asleep while watching tv in bed. I must have been dreaming that I was smelling a wet dog or some thing or my pillows were starting to smell like one, but I just got those pillows. Well I took apart the mask and gently washed them like it shows in the video and I'm sure it will be better tonight. I think it was all a dream tho. funny thing how a person can have strange dreams like that. A week or two ago I had a dream that there was a plunger stuck to my face and I must have had a good seal that night. Now a wet dog???? What next. but you are going ot love those pillows. I use the small ones. Have a great restful night with your Swift FX. Huggies, Fay

Re: Noob checking in, new mask tonight.
Hi Steve, so glad you have a great first night on your new FX. I have a pretty good second night on mine, but my nares got a tad sore so I had to losen it a tiny bit and it was fine after that. Slept really good last night too. Love that mask and it sure does feel like you've got nothing on. I like the idea of a full view while watching tv and reading and such. My mirage micro mask has the forhead support hing and it aleays made me look crosseyed. Well enjoy your new mask, Huggies, Fay...
