Re: DreamStation Auto vs AirSense 10 AutoSet

I recently switched from a PR S1 560 to a ResMed Autosense 10 Autoset. I am constantly amazed at how quiet it is compared to my old machine. From 1 to 2 feet away, it is virtually silent. The PR S1 seemed to have a wheeze to it right from the beginning. It never got any worse that I could tell but i...

Re: Airsense 10 Pollen Filter

I corrected my equipment. I needed to read more carefully!

Re: Airsense 10 Pollen Filter

Actually I didn’t see the Auto in the listing except the Autoset for Her. So I chose the closest I could find. I do have the Autoset with data.

Re: Airsense 10 Pollen Filter

Thanks to both Pugsy and Palerider! Both answers are helpful. I am using a hypoallergenic filter currently, I just didn't know if the 'pre' filter actually added anything. Pugsy, how often do you change the hypoallergenic filters? They are not expensive from cpap.com, so I don't have a problem repla...

Airsense 10 Pollen Filter

I have been away for a long time, but I have a new question. I switched from a Resperonics 560 to an Airsense Auto 10. It was time for a new machine and this time I got to choose what I wanted. I am, like a lot of people, with hay fever. This time of year is brutal for me. With the old Resperonics 5...

Anyone want 2 unused Wisp cushions?

I have 2 unused Wisp nasal cushions, size large, that are still in the sealed package that I received them in from my DME. I am no longer using my Wisp mask and I hate to see these go to waste. Both are together in one package so I would rather not separate them. Free to whoever PM's me first! Mike

Re: Air Fit P-10 headgear slides around--help!

Palerider, I knew that! But I am content with the Swift FX and just don't see a need to change for change sake. I did that going to the Wisp and I was never completely satisfied with it.

But thanks for whispering that in my ear! At least you didn't shout!

Re: Air Fit P-10 headgear slides around--help!

I have rosacea and use a Swift FX. I have found that I occasionally have breakouts in areas that the mask doesn't touch. My doctor prescribed MetroGel which I use nightly and that keeps the breakouts under control. I also use the Pad-A-Cheek strap covers and wash them every two weeks. They keep the ...

Re: Newbie Question

I sleep very well actually. Better than I have in years. If anything, I can almost sleep to excess! I have had weekends where I have slept for 10 hours straight. I haven't done anything like that in years. I will call my doctor to get a copy of the sleep study results. Once I have them I will be bac...

Re: Newbie Question

Thanks for the responses. That probably explains why my prescription is 7 to 18 but my pressure has never been higher that 12. I was never sent to a sleep doctor and I don't know the results of my home sleep study. Except that I was told to contact a DME to pickup the machine and pick a mask. UppaMike

Newbie Question

This may seem like a dumb question to longtime hoseheads but consider that I am pretty new at this. What is is the purpose of a titration study? I don't think I have had one but how would I know? I got into CPAP by having a home sleep study which is all my insurance would pay for. Does that include ...

Re: Where can I download Encore Pro 2?

Jerry,

Thanks for pointing out that I had an incorrect machine listed in my profile. I have corrected that. Some of the machine descriptions are so similar that I picked the wrong one.

Re: PRSI 60 heated tube is stretched

I have the same problem. In fact with mine it is both ends just before the connectors. It doesn't seem to hurt anything and I am just more careful with the hose now. But I have been on CPAP for just a couple of months so far so maybe someone else has had more experience with this issue.
