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

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

Hi Linda,
Really sorry I haven't been on here for such a long time. I have had and still have probs with my cpap. Let me sleep tonight and will answer you properly tomorrow :)

Hi Linda,
How are you getting on ? I am absolutely hating this cold weather. We came back from
Australia to the tail end of the bizarre March heatwave - just in time to catch the snow! I was hoping to get two summers this year , so I hope that weather in March wasn't it.
Hi Linda,
Welcome to the forum. I sympathise about the sore nose - I've had those same issues too. We are from the same part of the world, so perhaps have the same sleep clinic. I find the staff at Ninewells clinic really helpful and you'll get lots of good advice on this forum, too.
