I'm fairly certain I have apnea, sleep is never restful. Wives have told me I stop breathing at night, etc.

I found the above unit with 230 hrs for $250. I need direction on initial set-up and suggestions for use. I've looked through the stickied items at the top of the page but there's so much info it seems impossible to get through it all, that and I'm not sure what I should be reading and whats too advanced for a beginner.

This will be a journey and I'll be back often with ?'s, for now please point me to links or pages that I should start with.

Thank you for any and all help.

you have downloaded sleepyhead, right? (nod your head and say "yes")

I have now.

Picked up the machine this afternoon.

Came with 3 masks but only 1 has the correct attachments (Resmed Mirage Quatro) it seems ok and I'll try it but something else will probably be bought to try. I want to try a pillow type for sure.

I don't have any nasal pillow masks to sell or give away but you might contact grayghost4...a forum member here who sometimes has new masks he sells. I don't know what he has but he might have something that would work for you in the nasal pillow line.

I might have a couple of gently used nasal cushion masks of some sort...I need to check what they are as I have forgotten but they weren't the minimal cushion types (like the Nano or Wisp)...they had frames.
I will let you know what I have...these were donated...didn't work out for the previous owner and essentially almost brand new despite being out of the package.
Anything I have that was donated....I pass along the donation and only thing I might ask for is postage reimbursement.

Wow, very generous offer.

Night 1 went, well, I'm not sure. I felt like I was getting a lot of leaks. I've got all the info off the sd card and into sh but I'm not sure what info is important. I'll put it all up and please let me know.
