Re: Confused regarding Mask/Tubing/Humidifier Tub Cleaner
One question I had though, is it ok to take the humidifier tub out of the machine while it is in cool down mode (still pushing out a low flow of air with the snow flake symbol on the screen). It seems to take about an hour to 1.5hrs for it to cool down of a morning and I can't really wait that long...

Re: Sudden burst of CA's because left arm was out of bed!
It was only a one-off observation. It certainly wasn't a one-off. The mold and its curative properties had been observed for centuries. Fleming was the first to identify which substance in the mold had the bacteria-fighting characteristics. It was a decade later that a team of scientists that did n...

Why do people worry about such one-offs as this?

Re: Confused regarding Mask/Tubing/Humidifier Tub Cleaner
I use Dove Hypoallergenic Beauty Bar, which is probably from a chemical refinery. Be careful. It contains dihydrogen monoxide. WHO estimates DHMO kills 236,000 people annually. Dihydrogen monoxide (DHMO, SF Fig. 1.1) is a chemical compound that is commonly used in lab investigations. This chemical ...

Re: I’ll settle the debate on AHI for UARS folks

Re: Understanding readings
I am reading that the CPAP does not treat sleep apnea it just allows the patient more O2 to sleep better. Burn that damn book. The author is a most notable coward, an infinite and endless liar, an hourly promise breaker, the owner of not one good quality. Stick around. Members will be along to help...

Re: Okay to use used Bipap machine?
If it were me, I would look at the general condition/cleanliness of the machine and give it a good sniff test. Was the appearance of the person I bought it from decent? Were his fingernails clean? Replace the air filter. Use the machine.

Re: Tube holder and humidification
This is symptomatic of leaking air through your mouth. It will cause dry mouth. No CPAP humidifier can overcome this.

Re: Elderly Father COPD and CPAP
Young people of otherwise clear minds also refuse to use CPAP. It's very common.Does anyone else have elderly "non-compliant" parents when it comes to CPAP?
Don't let it be too hard on your mother or you.
