Waiting

Indy,
I am down in Columbus and had my machine within a week. The longest part was getting the doctor to send the order over. He was going to refer me to a neurologist, but his nurse talked him into ordering it directly. I was embarrassed because the RT made me come into a the retail store, left the door OPEN, and tried the mask on me! GRRR! I didn't get home delivery, and had to remember how to do it all!
I wouldn't trade it in, though.

Go Pacers!

I received my CPAP, it's a Remstar Pro with CFlex and a heated humidifier, the mask is a Flexifit HC407. This is a lot better then the equipment they had me on for the test. At first it hurt my nose, I thought it had to be tight so it would not leak, then I adjusted it to make it loose and it works great. It has a 6 foot hose so I can drape it over the head board of the bed and I don't get tangled up in it like I did at the sleep test. Thanks for all of your advice.

Indy, what is the Flex Fit HC407? Is it a full face or just nose mask.

Sharon, the Fisher and Paykel HC 407 is a nasal mask (covers just the nose). This is a picture of it:

Don't they make a full face mask also?
