    I don't use the humidifier option on mine but I do keep a water bottle handy if my mouth is dry when I wake up. Hope you get used to using it and you start getting better sleep.

    No heated tubes necessary because we don’t live in an under heated cabin above 42 latitude.  But my presssure is over 17

    may explain the blue hands. going to use the broken one til the new one arrives, got it back together but i know the end of the heater strip is now broken.  one hour of use and the incidence was 3 per hour.

    your pressure is twice mine, cant imagine it being that high and getting to sleep. the nasal cushion verse a mask isnt that bad but i did get a blister the first couple nights. straps probably too tight. **** getting it to heal with the blood clot meds

    If you have a beard, use some beard balm around where the mask hits before you go to bed.  Even your nose, it helps.

    @nolaegghead does your machine adjust itself during the night within a range?  Some do, some don’t.  17 may just be the max pressure you’re hitting at some point in the night.
    Love you bro!

    Yes.  Some times I will "reboot" it by turning it off and back on so it starts out gentle.  Certain things will trigger it to full blast, like taking it or the hose off.  I really need to do some research on how it works so I can game it better.

    if you have to get up you need a long extension chord to the sink or bathroom and carry it with you. you lose points turning it off /on in the myair app.  i actually read someone doing just that in the reviews

    Don’t take your blood pressure meds before you go to bed if they have HCTZ…

    No. Stopped waking up 25 times an hour and it dropped down to 3.6 apneas an hour Which is normal I guess.   I was not breathing while sleeping. Turns out screaming at  clouds helps😁
