Hello Everyone,

I have an update here. I was able to get some resolve here. Not 100%, but much much better. I was able to get a new mask called the Respironics DreamWear Nasal CPAP Mask and update my settings on my machine to get more air flow. Once that was done, the next day I felt much better. Didn't feel crappy or was suffering when I awoke. This mask is awesome. I am now working on deciding if I should have the medium or small frame.

The bottom line, it was a mask issue. I had the Resmed Mirage Micro Nasal Mask. Now I know this is a piece of junk at least for me. It has been a tad over a week with this. There was a few days I didn't feel as refreshed as some of the other days, but I am sure over time I will work that out.

I will update more later or with other questions.

Finding the right mask is probably the hardest part of this therapy...can't get anything done when we are fighting the mask and thus no chance of feeling better.

When you get time please update your equipment profile to show the DreamWear mask ...it will avoid potential confusion later.
