Critique of Padacheek for the Ultra Mirage II and Activa

Post by Yoga » Wed May 24, 2006 8:09 pm

Appearance: Attractive pink micro fleece material.

Construction: Very well made.

Comfort: The material is very soft and provides cushioning on the forehead support of the Ultra Mirage II.

Karen, we will be looking forward to new products from you that make coping with sleep apnea possible and easier.

Karen Moore can be reached at http://www.padacheek or treeloftstudio@yahoo.com.

I agree with everything but mine is blue! I wouldn't like having to hide it from my other manly men friends if they stop by.

Karen was sweet enough to send two pair of the forehead pad covers, in baby blue, to my son and me. I haven't used mine yet since I use the Aura every night and don't want to mess with a great thing, but my son (who will be 20 next Friday) has used his with his UMFF mask. And since he doesn't go on this site because, I guess, he's 19 is all I can say (plus I am always telling him what to do with his treatment...poor guy), I got his opinion and will post it for him

It is wonderful, according to him. He actually had to go to the doctor after using the UMFF because he developed a huge lump on his forehead that had white little dots under it from using the UM. Had to go on Avelox, very strong antibiotic. The doctor said it was infected, not to mention very painful to wear the mask.

He uses the forehead pad cover now every night and is doing great. He said now the only problem is, he has to put an Ace bandage across the face mask to keep it from making those hideous noises it's been known to make, but it works to keep the leak rate low. But the forehead pad cover has totally solved his problem of it being not only uncomfortable, but taking away the incidence of bumps/infection on his forehead.

As usual, another great product made by Karen of Especially Nice. Thanks, Karen!
PS: Smart move sending him the blue...I don't think pink would have done it for him .
