Re: Honey

The best reason to buy local honey, I've heard, is for its anti allergenic properties - coming from where you are.

Re: How can chin straps possibly work?

Doc advised me to get off my stomach sleeping position, and can't sleep on my side, so am on my back, but I know I will snore and blow air, so have been using the cervical collar. So glad to see the info on the brandy keg, as it should be considerably cooler than the collar.

Re: Terrifying Dreams!!

Are the times I wake up after dreaming of falling, from apnea, or does everybody have them?

Re: Husband says I'm choking? But MyAir score was 98? HELP!

How was your sleep last night? Do you still feel good this morning? Could you try putting your old mask on the new machine and maybe we could help you get it to work?

Re: Just bought a resmed s9 escape and need advice please:)

Yup, one pressure - I ran my Escape on 11 for a couple of years and did a lot better than without any machine. It does record data, just not much. Do as Pugsy says and as soon as you can get a better machine, do that.

Re: Need cooler air

Some people have set up a run thru a styrofoam cooler for their hose, then filled the cooler with ice, or set up some kind of a cooler with a fan running across the ice at the inlet to the cpap.

Re: difference between activa mask cushions

actually, I think I've figured out the medium is a LT size, and the standard is the plain vanilla size. I have bought some of each thinking the same as you, but the other night I switched from the standard to the medium and it felt better, so I would like to trade my standards for mediums.
