British Lung Foundation's Sleep Apnoea Survey
Please will all UK Sleep Apnoea Sufferers fill in the British Lung Foundations' Online Survey? It is the first survey done of this kind and involves answering questions on your symptoms, diagnosis and treatment, with a view to improving services for OSA across the UK. Oh, and you might even win a £25 Marks & Spencer's Voucher as a thank you!
Here's the direct link to the survey www.blf.org.uk/osasurvey and thank you for your time.

I've filled in the survey and found it interesting reflecting on how I felt before treatment + just how long it actually took me to finally get on therapy. Of course I ticked the box to say I'd like to win the M & S Voucher too

I've done the survey too and also found it interesting in the same way as you Kath . Some questions wee a little awkward to answer but only because I have not yet been using Cpap for 12 months.

Thanks Steven - no wonder BLF said they'll find it interesting reading, as I found it interesting doing it, and will look forward to receiving results of the survey, as I ticked that box too!

I've filled in the survey Kath. I also found some questions tricky to answer... mainly because although I had heard of OSA several years ago, I was then only concerned about my excessve snoring. I was not fully aware of ALL symptoms of OSA (some of which I also had), until a couple of years ago, when I was diagnosed.

Filled it in Kath! found it quite simple but the questions on diagnosis are a bit confusing as I (and other SA people I know) were seeing their GP's with other things well before it was even suspected. and of course I ticked the box to say I would go in the box for the M&S vouchers! (which I will probably donate to the tombola for HSASG if lucky!)

just try starting it again if it went through you will get a message 'already completed'

CPAP Total Face Mask
I was curious whether anyone has used the CPAP Total Face Masks and could pass on their observations? I've been using an Airfit F20 for years which is fine apart from the permanent red mark on the bridge of my nose, and have recently tried the…See More

"Hi
It sounds like you need to have more conversations with your sleep clinic. There's little point in having a high pressure if it means you cannot tolerate the machine. There's an interesting video here…"
Pressure waking me up. Belching and wind
HiI'm using the prisma smart max machine. Initially I was just on a nasal mask, this changed as I was sleeping with my mouth open. I then went to face and nose mask and complained of bad wind and belching. Sometimes the pressure in the night was…See More

"Hi
My first thought is "don't panic"! We're all a bit different, and there are many things that can be tweaked. I took to CPAP therapy like a duck to water, but I've had friends who say they can't cope, but…"
1st time and I’ve failed the mask leak test
Hi everyone, today I received my rental kit - prisma smart max, plus a Philips dreamwear mask which I’ve been wearing unconnected to try and get used to it. I just did a mask fit test using a medium mask and got a constant red/orange leak warning…See More

"Nope, I just accept that some people's throats tend to close when they sleep, due to a loss of muscle tone during deeper sleep. Back when I was diagnosed, the sleep lab just filmed you whilst you slept, stuck an O2 meter on your finger,…"
