need mask without a prescription
need mask without a prescription
i can't get a prescription anymore, they require me to have another sleep study and i lost my insurance. All i need is a new mask, i heard you can get them without the headgear/strap without a prescription, but it seems to cost more for just the mask alone doing it that way than for the mask and headgear together with a prescription. Anyone know where i could get just a mask for a reasonable price? im really tight on funds but i cant sleep without my cpap.

cpapmaskdeals.com never asks me for a script and their masks are always nicely discounted. I just ordered nasal pillows today for $13 that usually go for $20.

Re: need mask without a prescription
if you are buying the same mask as you have, just buy the cushions. there is no reason to replace the whole thing unless you want a different style mask. mask cushions do not need a prescription. also, any doctor or dentist can write a prescription for a mask.

Check Amazon as well. I ordered a F&P forma from there and didn't need a script

I have an original comfort gel nasal mask size medium that you can have. If you would go to the user profile at the top of the page and register on the forum and add your equipment too....then I can send you a pm and get all your info. By not reegistering on the forum I have no way of knowing where to send the mask...if you want it that is.

Re: need mask without a prescription
The three different outfits I have used in the past have never asked me for a prescription! I go so tired of being treated like a criminal by a local supplier that I started buying on line. It was like I was supposed to pay for a Dr visit (this was before most Drs had on-line subscription renewal requests). So I was supposed to pay for a Dr visit, then carry the slip to the store just to get a new strap or something. If my Dr prescribed a cane and the rubber tip wore-out would I need a script just to buy a new cane tip?! The regulations can be ridiculous. Send me a Pm and I can give you the websites.

I have no doubt, how I sleep affects every waking moment.
I am making progress-NOW I remember that I can't remember
If this isn’t rocket science why are there so many spaceshots?

This mask is what I presently want to try!
You must be a smart person. Do you have any interesting stories about it? If yes, then what's about forming the cushion
by dipping it in hot water?
See this post where I am telling my problems with Full Face masks. I got about a dozen FF masks that I don't like.
