Question-To comfortable?

I love the fact that I am sleeping better especially since it has been only 3 months for me. One thing I have noticed is that I have gotten comfortable with using my machine and mask. Lately I have been slacking in doing things such as cleaning my mask, checking the water level in my humidifier and looking at my data. I had a this morning that maybe I am getting a little too comfortable with my treatment.
I am wondering if any thinks that it is possible to get too comfortable And if so any suggestions on how to stop this from this happening.

The recommendations for cleaning seem pretty onerous to me. I think it's possible to take a more practical approach.

Every Sunday morning I clean my humidifier tank and refill it (it lasts me the entire week, YMMV), and the foam filter. I use fresh nasal pillows "daily" but I rotate between three and just wash them every third day.

I wash my headgear and acoutrements only if they are looking grungy. I stopped washing my big hose and slinky hose at all. I don't have any rain out issues, they are always bone dry, it's a semi-closed system, and I think the water from the washing poses a bigger hazard than anything else because it's hard to dry the hoses out completely.

I replace things regularly, I'm just going on my 6 month anniversary to replace the hoses and foam filter.

I'm going on 6 months on CPAP and I've been just fine with this regimen. Not even a respiratory infection since I started CPAP, a record for me who always gets whatever kids bring home from school at the beginning of the school year. My little one got sick, but not me.

If you think there's a problem, I guess there is. I am quite comfortable with my treatment as well but to me that's a great thing. It's not dominating my thoughts or my life anymore. It's just a normal part of it. To me that's good.

I clean my stuff when I think it needs it. Once or twice, there's been a night when I'm like ewww this needs to be cleaned, but it's usually at a time when I'm busy with other stuff so it's fine. I probably only check my data once a month now and my numbers are steady so I'm not concerned. If I wasn't feeling well, I'd go back to checking it more often to see if I needed to make an adjustment.

jabman,

Don't worry too much, think of it as a new toy. You start off wanting to tinker with it, and keep up with it, check the stats, clean the machine etc, but the newness novelty wears off.

I just empty the H5i reservoir every day, rinse it and re-fill at night. I clean it once a week (just with water and soap) and only clean the mask or tube if it gets grubby.

I don't have any problems with the machine, you don't need to clean it every day. I check stats once a week now, usually on a Sunday, transfer them to ResScan and take a look. I do press the INFO button to check the stats when I awake each morning just to make sure my AHI doesn't skyrocket.

Thanks
Dave
