I use the Simplus full face mask by Fisher and Pakel. It vents out and makes a good seal that does not leak out towards my eyes at all. I highly recommend it.

You try to get back to sleep with your eyes open? With that logic why not just leave the night stand light on or the TV on all night. It just happens that I like the room dark, enough said. Why not what now? The night stand light or TV are a lot brighter than the tiny little light on the CPAP machi...

Have you ever seen a person lighting up a cancer stick as they are leaving the gym? No, but I've been known to stop at the convenient store on the way home from the gym and grab a cold Heineken to chill chill out after a tough work out So you put back in all those carbs into your system after a wor...

Oh for heaven's sake, just put a strip of black electrician's tape over the damn light and dose away. Sometimes these threads are like Monty Pythons skit on swallows carrying coconuts.

Cover the light with a small piece of duct tape.
