Re: THE GREAT PILLOW EXCHANGE

I have a large and medium swift fx nasal pillow to trade for smalls. Prefer to deal with other Canadians for faster service and cheaper stamps, but I'm not picky. Pm me if interested.

Re: Successor to Swift LT?

Good to know, thanks. I'm eligible for a new mask at the end of the year and wondered if I should hold off for the Swift V4.0 if there ever was one.

dry nasal passages - Swift LT

Hey guys. I'm experiencing some dry nasal passages in the morning with my Swift LT nasal pillow mask. If I turn the humidifier up on my S8 Elite II beyond the halfway point, I get a lot of rainout in my nasal pillows. Are there some creams/sprays people here recommend?

Re: Need help with the Swift LT Nasal pillows

Like Dreamstalker, a ponytail helps me to keep my Swift nasal pillows in place throughout the night. Without it the entire headgear will shift and I don't want to try clamping it all down too hard or it'd be uncomfortable. Hmmm okay well are there any short hair men out there who have had similar S...

Re: Need help with the Swift LT Nasal pillows

My problem is my mask keeps slipping off! I think I must be a very restless sleeper and move around alot at night, and because this mask is so comfy and not as secure as a full face mask, I somehow just pull it off. I wake up in the morning and find the mask next to me in the bed, or just on the flo...

Re: If you need a free travel PAP-Tag...

Good tip BeamMeScot, also check your local Dollar Stores as some sell these for only 4 for $1! Only one I know of though is in Canada and it's called Dollarama.

Re: New problems with Swift LT pillows

I just wanted to add a comment to those of you who are saying that your pillows are wearing out faster than insurance will replace them. Insurance will replace the entire mask and headgear every 6 months, however they will replace the cushions or the nasal pillow monthly. You can actually get two a...

Re: Swift LT vs Ultra Mirage II

My DME is Medigas who have many offices throughout Canada. The one I bought my machine and mask at had a little office at the sleep clinic that did my sleep study, she didn't offer me any loaner machines or masks to start off with and at the time I knew nothing about CPAP equipment but ended up with...

Swift LT vs Ultra Mirage II

hey guys, I've been on successful CPAP therapy for 4 months now (titrated at 8.0 cm h20) and part of that success is due to the comfort of the Swift LT nasal pillow system. However lately I've been finding that my mask is falling off in the middle of the night. I think this is because I'm getting mo...

Re: Are all smart card readers the same?

Well I've been emailing back and forth to ACS for 6 weeks now and they are useless! They don't have any items for purchase from their Canadian website and they don't seem to be able to ship from Hong Kong. Where did other Canadians buy their ACR38 smart card reader? I found some US online sites that...

Re: How to "Spring Forward" with ResMed S8 Elite II?

I just did it this morning and did option 1) Erase Data. It's really no biggie, but you do lose your recorded efficiency data such as hours/days/weeks/months usage. If you don't feel like changing your clock I don't think it matters too much, it just means that instead of the machine erasing daily d...
