Ok, so I was reading up on that earlier and I saw that you cannot use the ComfortCurve mask with it. In looking at the pics though alot of the people are wearing the same mask that is similar in my opinion to the CC...
What mask are they wearing? I am really liking the looks of it but can't seem to figure out what it is...I am on the hunt for a new mask but am just considering ordering another CC...
Anyone know?
Question about the BreatheX...

Hi MissA,
This is just my guess. The mask in the pictures looks like something new -- probably designed by the makers of the BreatheX and probably still undergoing the FDA approval before it can be announced and released.
Actually, you can use the Comfort Curve mask with the BreatheX machine, if you use the entire Comfort Curve stuff...meaning, use the air hose that comes with the Comfort Curve.
You just attach the Comfort Curve's main air hose directly to the air outlet of the BreatheX. Same as you'd attach the Comfort Curve to any cpap machine.
I just now tried it. BreatheX and Comfort Curve. CC's hose attaches just fine to it. Tried it long enough to see that it can be connected perfectly to the BreatheX, then put the CC away again in my "can't use this mask" drawer.
What you can't do (without rigging up some kind of connector thingie or using duct tape!) is....you can't take the CC's air hose off and try to attach the Comfort Curve's dangling Y tubing to the BreatheX's air outlet or even to one of the BreatheX's short hoses. But you sure can use the CC with the BreatheX if you use the CC's own air hose.

TY RG, I LOVE the breatheX and would love to have it for power failure and things like that but at this time cannot afford it on my own and my insurance will not pay for another machine anytime soon I dont believe, my biggest thing was finding out about that mask cause it looks like one I would love considering I LOVE my CC...and I can order a new mask soon...I will have to keep on the lookout for it...Thanks...
