Sounds good and interesting.
I'm sitting here rubbing my burning eyes due to my current (Acclaim 2) mask leaking air into my eyes. I was thinking of trying either a nasal prong mask or nasal cushion but maybe my thinking is wrong? I'm ready to make some changes to overcome this problem.

Re: Intro from newbie in Canada
Hello and welcome on board. I'm in Ontario Canada and I bought my CPAP equipment at Shoppers Home Healthcare. The government paid $780.00 and I paid $260.00 for the equipment plus $200.00 for the R.R.T. services. (Total of $460.00) The machine I have is a Respironics Remstar Plus. I was told that th...

Re: Padacheek PAC Nosebridge
Sorry Jason I'm not sure on the definition for FFM but I'm guessing its a mask.
The manufacturer has several different models of masks and I had to tell them that I have the Aclaim2 mask.
But sorry if that wasn't the answer to your question!

Re: Padacheek PAC Nosebridge
No I don't work for the company. I'm just an end user hose head. The piece of fabric that protects my nose bridge is actually thinner than the moleskin tape that my DME told me to use. So I find that it seals better since I'm using the PAC Nosebridge. But that's just my experience now. There might b...

Padacheek PAC Nosebridge
Recently I bought the PAC Nosebridge from http://www.padacheek.com. I was using moleskin to keep my sensitive skin on the bridge of my nose from cracking and bleeding. This item eliminates the hassle of applying the moleskin as well as the discomfort of taking it off in the morning. I would recommen...

Re: Remstar Plus M series fine adjustment
I might have a little more time to write up a post today. I really don't think that the "fine adjustment" would have any affect (as a benefit) on what you described in your post in that thread. Den Probably not from your point of view Den. But from my point of view it has. And I have proved it with ...

Re: Remstar Plus M series fine adjustment
The post at this link might explain a bit more what I'm up against with my CPAP experience. And the fine pressure adjustment.

Remstar Plus M series fine adjustment
Can anybody explain to me how the "fine pressure adjustment" affects the main CPAP pressure on the Remstar plus M series machine? It seems to me that the main pressure can be adjusted in ½ pressure increments. Or in other words it jumps from 7.0 to 7.5 to 8.0. The fine pressure adjustment can be adj...

chest pain & back-ache
Hello everybody. I have been reading these forums since Sept. 2008 when I first started with my cpap therapy. I thank everyone for the useful information that I obtained from these forums. When I started out with therapy my pressure was a 7.0 and I was having a continuous back-ache but the thought n...
