Itching with mask

I have the Fisher Paskel full face mask. Lately I have been waking up several times a night to itch my face under my mask. I have cleaned the mask and it does not help the problem. Any ideas to help with this?

Re: Vpap Auto 25 question

I had a bipap Pro before this one but it did not have all of the data my new one does. My DME said they do not know how to do it. I think they are just angry because I bought this machine on an auction and did not go through them. Anyone know how I can set this myself? I know how to get into the cli...

Re: Tips for flying with CPAP?

I fly at least once a month with my machine. Yes, you have to take it out of the bag so it can be swabbed after going through xray. Just take it out when you take off your shoes, watch, etc. You do not have to worry about your hose or anything like that. Just the machine. I also agree with not takin...

Vpap Auto 25 question

I just got the ResMed Vpap auto 25. For some reason it is not showing my Efficacy Data. It says 0 on everything, even the time used. Is there something I need to do to get this to register? I have looked in the manual and cannot find anything about that. Any info would be great! Thanks!

Re: Bipap question

Pressure Support is the difference between the IPAP set pressure and the EPAP set pressure. For instance, w/your VPAP Auto 25 set in Spontaneous mode w/IPAP at 17 and EPAP at 11 (same settings as I now have) the Pressure Support is automatically 6 cms (17-11=6). You are fortunate this Resmed VPAP A...

Re: Bipap question

The Resmed VPAP Auto 25 has 3 modes: CPAP, Spontanesou (straight bi-level) and VAUTO (auto bi-level). Do you know what the Pressure Support is set at? Can you access your nightly data via the LED screen? Have you read thru your Users Manual? Is this Resmed VPAP Auto 25 your permanent bi-level or is...

Bipap question

I recently got a new machine. It is the ResMed Vpap Auto 25. I had a Resporonics Bipap Pro before this one. I have a question for Bipap users. I do not feel I am getting the same air in this machine as I did previously. My husband said I am snoring now. I had the pressure tested and it is blowing co...

Re: Bipap pro 2 question

The humidifier shuts off. Sorry, I should have been more clear. But it is during the night, when I am using it.

Bipap pro 2 question

I recently got the Bipap pro2 with the heated humidifier. Every night I turn on the heater and after about an hour or so it shuts itself off. Is it supposed to do this? If not, is there a way I can change it? Thanks

BIpap Help. Urgent!

I just got a Bipap pro 2 with heated humidifier today. I turn it on to use it and after about a minute, an alarm goes off and it gives me a C201 alert. Any ideas what this is and how I can fix it?

Machine Problems

I have a resmed bipap pro machine. A few night ago water got into my machine from my humidifier. I took it to my Home health place and they ran it and worked on it and checked my pressures and said it was ok. However, ever since then, I have noticed that I am losing pressure after about 3 or 4 hours...
