Re: Can't get out of bed

Thanks guys I will post my results. Last night I went strait to sleep (about 2.15 am) I don't remember waking up at all and I eventually got up at about 11 am. It's like coming out of a general anesthetic! How about using some of your own advice? (Notice the wink) I do like wearing the mask, I am le...

Can't get out of bed

I have an overnight sleep study next week, it has been arranged to try and find out why I still feel so crap in the morning. I get loads of sleep and feel so much more alert in general, it's just that it can take me up to two hours to actually get out of bed. I just lay there in a half doze. Its bee...

Re: so depressed.. do i really have to wear this??

That mask is your best friend, learn to love it and enjoy the new you. Don't think of your treatment as horrible medicine, think of it as a simple cure that is effected in the dark and 'you' have control of. Its a part if your life now, a better life and probably a longer life. Stop moaning and get ...

Re: face itching under mask

Apparently, under mask itching is due to being too good looking and having too much sex and having far too much money

Re: OT: Pray for me please

I'm in the twilight zone right now. Just so tired of searching and waiting for answers. That's your lull before the storm. When you know what you definitely confront, you can bring all your strength and anger to bear down on it and defeat it. Don't let it take more than it has to. Get angry with it...

Re: Cleaning Mask, Hose and Humidifier

I dismantle and clean the whole mask every morning plus flush the hose through and hang it all to dry. All the snot, dribble and sweat crap makes me feel ill, I just have to have it all spotless. How anyone can put on a dirty mask is beyond me!

Re: went from gel full face to mirage quattro

I think its the inner silicon bit that just touches the side of the nose, if you wrinkle your nose up you can feel the bugger at the exact point of the itch. when I get a new seal I shall cut this bit off the old one and see if that fixes the problem. Funny how it always seems to start just as you a...

Re: ComfortLite 2 - Other options? Nose bridge issues still

I have a theory on this. I suspect that simply placing any impervious surface that keeps the air out, against the nose bridge all night allows any bacteria in the pores to develop rapidly into a spot. This must also create all sorts of skin reactions on what is a very sensitive area. I think the red...

Re: went from gel full face to mirage quattro

Forgot to say, I do get the most irritating and unignorable(is that a word)? itches at the side's of my nose occasionally. Drives me mad sometimes, you just have to scratch the bloody thing and doing so wakes you right up again and then the leaks start coz you got a finger under the seal

Re: went from gel full face to mirage quattro

Superb mask, it was the first one I used and I got all the usual sore nose bridge probs that sent me off looking for a better one. After nasal and a fisher paykel ff house brick I am back to the quattro. What would be helpful is if Resmed/sleep techs made more noise about how to alleviate the sore n...
