Re: Resmed 11 water reservoir
Husband picked up his brand-new Resmed Airsense 11 today. I've had same model for the past few months. On his new Resmed it is very hard to remove the humidifier to add water. You have to push down on the white tab VERY HARD and simultaneously give a HARD tug at the humidifier to get it to release....

Resmed 11 water reservoir
Everyday I seem to have a struggle removing the water reservoir from my new Resmed 11. I have been using Cpap for years and this machine replaced my Resmed 10. Has anyone found a hack or an easy way to pull out the reservoir?

Vapor distilled water
I saw 16 oz bottles of Simple Truth vapor distilled water with electrolytes for taste. Does anyone know if this is safe in CPAP machine. The bottle size is what attracted me..if this will work, there would be no need to carry a gallon bottle when traveling. Thanks

Re: pressure on nose bridge
I've used the wisp nasal mask for over a year..loved it but left pressure point on my nose. I then tried using it with the Resmed Gecko pad but I developed leaks. I have moved to the DreamWear Gel Nasal Pillow CPAP Mask and have been using it for the last 2 weeks. I believe it is relatively new on t...

Re: holes in my wisp white tubing
Perhaps you are right about the stretching...I know that is not from the washing of the tubing. During the night I often tug on the tubing when I roll over. The real question is how can I limit the stretching of the short tubing while I am sleeping.

Re: holes in my wisp white tubing
I wash it with mild/ natural dishwashing soap. It is the same soap that I use for the long tubing, the mask and the water reservoir. This short tubing is the only one that develops holes.

holes in my wisp white tubing
I have been a CPAP user for several years and have 95% compliance. I know that I sleep much better when I use my machine. Now for the question...The white tubing that connects to my wisp nasal mask has developed holes (for the second time). I have no animals and I can't figure out what is causing th...

Re: Sensitive teeth?
I have been on CPAP for about 15 months. I push my tongue against my front teeth and I have never had a seal/leak problem...instead I know have a large space between my upper front teeth and will end up spending thousands of dollars for braces. My tongue has managed to push my teeth forward...Hard t...

Re: New Wisp nasal mask in stock at cpap.com
I just started Medicare (can't imagine how I got so old). How would I go about ordering the wisp so that it is covered by medicare? I don't think that I can order it on line and still get it covered..does anyone know where I could find this mask and have medicare pay for it.

Re: What has been your biggest mistake in dealing with apnea?
Well, my front teeth moved . The upper front teeth moved outward, forming an overbite & pushing the teeth further apart, creating large spaces between my front teeth (spaces between front 6 teeth). All this created some bone loss. If I had known a retainer would have prevented this , I would have se...

I have been using CPAP for one week short of a year. My success has been remarkable as I was able to adapt to CPAP from my first night. Now the problem.. In the last few months, I have noticed that a space had developed between my front teeth. I am thinking that the situation is created because I h...
