Re: Creative Dreams
Way to go, tattoo! That must be a good feeling. Dreaming about doing what you love. Could there be any better dream....aside from the obvious ones I am 3 months into my therapy and the fog that I now know was there, has mostly lifted. I'm using notebooks again for business ideas and am really hot on...

Re: CAN'T WAIT!!! NEED FullLife Product Challenge Results
I would also add that the design engineers should wear the prototypes a few nights themselves to see what it does.rested gal wrote:Wouldn't it be better to hear critiques from experienced users before a new mask goes into full production?

Do you want photos? I bet the message of what this mask does to people's noses would be loud and clear if they posted some pics. I might even be willing to wear it one night without moleskin to show what it does to me.

Re: CAN'T WAIT!!! NEED FullLife Product Challenge Results
It looks like a LOT of people are having the nose of bridge issue. I would even say it's like putting your nose through a meat grinder. They have to redesign how the cushion works at the bridge of the nose. It's actually a very comfy mask and I wasn't really having issues with leaks. I love that it ...

Re: FullLife Mask - Bridge Beater
Ozji, I'm going to have to do just that tonight. The welt on the bridge of my nose became a small pimple farm this afternoon. It's still quite red and tender. I'm going back to my nasal mask tonight. It comes into contact with my nose higher up than the FullLife. Wearing the FullLife is more comfort...

Re: FullLife Mask - Bridge Beater
I got the clip you are referring to, BB in anticipation of trying this mask and it does work. I actually trimmed the velcro piece a little bit to make it a tad thinner to fit in the slot of the mask frame. The clip isn't the best type and a little difficult to pop loose, but it's better than readjus...

Re: FullLife Mask - Bridge Beater
Last night with this mask, I did notice that at some point I drooled and it was leaking where my drool dribbled out. Ew. That was a little gross... Gross, but true.

Re: FullLife Mask - Bridge Beater
So last night I taped some of the micropore tape on my nose as suggested by sleepngo. Mainly because I forgot to swing by the Walgreens for the moleskin. My nose was tender and somewhat sore all day long yesterday after a night with the mask and this morning it seems no worse than yesterday and mayb...

Re: Weight gain/ loss?
I've gained some weight since starting a couple of months ago, but I think it is totally unrelated to xpap. I would say it's more because our diet has been thrown into crazy mode since my wife is pregnant. I can no longer cook in the house because the smells will make her want to toss her cookies. I...

Re: Poll: How Often Do You Clean Your Tank?
For the people that voted never, do you at least wipe it out once in a while? It seems like even with distilled water it's possible that mold spores or bacteria could get in there and grow eventually, right? Nah! The mold gives the air that je ne sais quoi, sort of quality! I answered never, but I'...

Re: Weight Loss, energy levels
I've gained a little bit of weight since starting xpap almost 2 months ago. However, I don't think it has anything to do with my machine. Lately I've been eating poorly and since my wife is pregnant, she can't stand cooking smells and our diet has changed dramatically. We usually do the low carb thi...

Re: Blowing hot 'n' cold on APAP
I was titrated at 9cm and I have set my machine with the upper limit at my titrated pressure and the lower limit at 7cm. I did that because my sleep report noted centrals at higher pressures. I am averaging an AHI of around 2-2.5 for the last few weeks. Of course I switched masks last night to the F...

FullLife Mask - Bridge Beater
I know there are several threads on the FullLife already, but I would like to hear an update from owners in regards to how the bridge of their noses are doing. With or without using moleskin, tape, etc. I got my FullLife yesterday and slept with it last night. At first, it was pretty comfy compared ...

Re: Will You Get the Swine Flu Vaccine?
Can the folks who answered "NO" to the chronic question provide your rationale why you answered that way? I've seen several explanations from those who answered "YES" (including my own), but none from the "NO" group.
