I get all my supplies on e-bay, for barely more than the co-pay Lincare gets.

Re: Why oh why oh why isn't this working?

Maybe you could take a piece of pantyhose and knot it around your head "headband style" over the mask straps? It would probably come off if you tried hard enough, but maybe you could fashion something that wouldn't?

Re: BROKEN 2 YEAR old philips respironics cpap

CPAP machines are typically pretty long lived, but always exceptions. But if they say they can fix it, you can have a reasonable expectation of more use out of it.

Re: Need CPAP Machine that produces a ton of humidity

Did I miss the part that says your humidifier tub is running out of water? If so, you might try a stand alone humidifier in between your machine and mask.Like this one https://www.cpap.com/productpage/respironics-remstar-passover-humidifier-hose.html?gclid=CjwKEAiAmdXBBRD0hZCVkYHTl20SJACWsZj9h21YyiO...

Re: Returning Member with Questions

I would go ahead and rig up your old gear just like you had it a long time ago, until you get to talk to the doctor. Maybe you will be ahead of the curve. If it helps, great, otherwise you will have the numbers to show him.

Re: CMS-60C: Trouble Uploading Data

Don't know about the 60, but the cms50 has to have a special cord, not just any ole usb cord you have lying around, but the one that came with it.

Re: Now some help for my wife...

The exit hole expels the co2 so you don't re-breathe it. You might try a hose management system to keep your hose from moving your mask.

Yes, indstrial velcro is the answer to everything that needs sticking. I think you could build a house with it.

Re: I am nearly completely disabled. Is Apnea the culprit????

When you are trying to get well, you have to try things that might or might not work, starting with the simplest - that would be cpap. So try it before you have to investigate other, more complicated, solutions. Good luck

Re: Need a clip for F&P Pilairo Mask

Could you post a picture of it, in case a clip from some other mask might work?

Re: CMS-50E Connection Problem

I know, I know! You have to use the usb cable that comes with the instrument. Don't know what it is, but that is the only one that works.

Re: Questions about REMstar Pro C-Flex +

If you can't get a heated hose compatible with your machine, you can buy this one http://www.sleepzone.com.au/our-products/ and it will work with any machine. I have it and it works great.
