  • camping with a CPAP

    I'm planning on going on a camping trip and use a RemStar Plus CPAP machine. Is it possible to run the machine off a portable generator (inverter)? In the instruction book of the generator it states: "Some precision equipment is voltage sensitive and may require a more uniform voltage supply...

  • Re: Need a new mask

    Trekkie01, you might find that RemZzzs CPAP mask liners help to reduce the allergic reaction you are having to the compounds in your mask skirt. If you have already migrated to the Swift nasal pillow I hope that you have continued success as I hear that this is a good system. If you find that you need...

  • Re: Allergy to full-face mask

    Lyle, you might want to look into RemZzzs CPAP mask liners . We've had a very high success rate with patients who have issues with allergic reaction to the silicone (or the particular mixture of compounds). Most of the people who have used RemZzzs for issues related to skin erosion and breakdown...

  • Re: allergy to silicone

    You may want to give RemZzzs CPAP mask liners a try. We've had many, many people find relief from silicone allergies using RemZzzs. They act as a barrier between the mask and skin. Check out our "Real Stories" section to read just a sample of some users who have found relief from skin irritation...

  • High Pressure / Under-bite Masks

    Do some masks stand up better to high pressure than others? Are some better for people with an under-bite? I have been on CPAP for about 8 months and have gone through 4 different face masks. Very few masks fit my face well, and those that do only seem to work for a month or two, but then the leaks get...

  • Re: Informal Poll - Humidifier or No?

    [quote user="kperkins"] Ok so who uses humidification with CPAP and who does not? If you use humidification, is it cool air or heated? If you do not use a CPAP humidifier, why not? Do you find yourself to be stuffier or more congested than usual? [/quote] Am a nose/mouth sleeper; wear full...

  • Full-face mask and beards

    If money were no object... Is there a full-face mask out there anywhere that will perform better than the ResMed Quattro and Fisher-Paytel FlexFit 432 in providing a seal without sliding into one's mouth -- without 1) digging into the bridge of one's nose so deep that it almost cuts the skin...

  • Re: HELP - Tried 3 masks so far -

    [quote user="Rick S"] I am a fairly new CPAP user. I have tried 3 masks, one a Repironics Classic Comfort (would not stay on without being so tight it gave me a head ache), Puritan Bennett Breeze with both Nasal Pillow and Dream Seal (the Dream seal would not seal right and the nasal pillows...

  • Is the Zzzz Traveller Cpap by Probasics up to standards?

    Good day, I have been diagnoised with mild obstructive sleep apnea and my insurance is not paying for a Cpap. My prescription just has CPAP + 6. I'm recommended a full mask which I have an updated one. I am on disability and cannot afford much. Since I only have a mild case, do you think I really...

  • My new CPAP

    I'm new to CPAP, being diagnosed with severe sleep apnea last month after a sleep study and another CPAP sleep study. The specialist I saw prescribed a ResMed Elite II with a heated humidifier and a full face Mirage Quattro mask with tube. The ramping was set at 45 minutes and the pressure at 15...
