I just bought a Dreamwear full face mask, because I need to use my mouth to breathe. After a few trials with my new CPAP, I find that my mouth becomes very very dry even if humidity is at Maximum

New user of CPAP device and mask

SOURCE: Camcorder shows condensation problem most of the time

Its a possibility that the sensor could be bad but I'll bet that its a small surface mounted capacitor thats bad. These are common for the caps to go bad, and when they do start to leak, the camcorder should be taken into the shop asap, AS THE LONGER YOU WAIT THE MORE DAMAGE the Capacitors will cause, as they eat up the tiny traces on the board and then the board has to be replaced. Good Luck

SOURCE: scuba mask maintenance

" 1. Use a defogging solution before every dive, even when diving more than once in the same day. This will prevent your scuba mask from fogging during a dive. You can purchase a commercially prepared defogging solution from any reputable scuba diving retailer. Squeeze a drop or two onto the inside lens of your mask and gently rub the solution around to cover the inside completely. Dip your mask briefly into water, swirl the water around the inside of your mask very quickly and empty the water from your mask. A quick rinse will remove any excess defogging solution from the inside of your mask. You do not want to get defogging solution in your eyes, especially while diving, since it can cause stinging and irritation. If you don't want to use a commercially prepared defogging solution you have a defogging solution readily available and it's free, your saliva. Your saliva will prevent your scuba mask from fogging just as well as any commercial defogging solution. The enzymes in your saliva stick to the lens of your mask like a commercial defogging solution and you will never find yourself without a defogger while on a dive. 2. Never lay your scuba mask face-down on any surface. Salt, sand and grit will scratch the lens of your mask. Always place your mask face up when you are not wearing it or if it is not in its hard case. 3. Rinse your scuba mask in clean, freshwater after each dive and dry it thoroughly before storing it in its hard case. After a dive, your mask will be covered in a salty residue and/or dirt. This must be rinsed clean to prevent the silicone on your mask from degrading. Your mask must be completely dry before storing it to ensure the silicone stays clean and odor-free. 4. Always store your scuba mask in its hard case. If your mask did not come with a hard case purchase an after-market hard case. This will protect your mask from dirt and abrasives and protect it while traveling. Always store the case out of direct sunlight. Direct sunlight will break down the silicone after years of exposure. 5. Periodically repeat the toothpaste treatment to keep the lens of your scuba mask clean. A good rinse after each dive helps to keep your mask clean, but to ensure there is no residue or grit left on your scuba mask you must properly clean it on a regular basis."

My nose keeps getting congested . I have the pillow maskAir curve10.

Hello, Joan -

Clarificaton: You are asking about the pillow mask for your AirCurve 10 CPAP machine and are wondering why your nose still is congested?

The AirCurve 10 is manufactured by ResMed. One of the support pages on the ResMed website (homepage: https://www.resmed.com/us/en/consumer.html
has some Frequently Asked Questions on getting used to your machine:
https://www.resmed.com/us/en/consumer/support/devices/getting-used-to-your-device.html

From that web page:
[Quote]

I'm experiencing a dry throat or nasal congestion while using my device. What are my options?

A. Try using a humidifier. Using a PAP machine or other sleep apnea therapy device can sometimes lead to drying and congestion of the throat, nose, and mouth because the airflow generated by the machine is often greater than what your body is accustomed to humidifying on its own. Humidifiers and heated tubes can increase the amount of humidity in the "inspired air" (the air which surrounds you before you inhale it) and may help counteract these symptoms and help make therapy more comfortable.
Talk to your healthcare professional about a nasal decongestant. Nasal allergies and congestion may result in "mouth breathing"' during the night, which dries the throat and mouth and can negatively affect your sleep apnea therapy. Talk to your doctor to find out if using a nasal decongestant or antihistamine may help alleviate this issue.
Talk to your doctor or equipment supplier about chinstraps. Sometimes, during sleep apnea treatment, people unknowingly open their mouths during the night, resulting in a dry throat and mouth. Using a chinstrap may help keep your mouth closed while you sleep.
Talk to your doctor about switching to a full face mask. Chronic nasal allergies or other nasal problems such as a deviated septum can make breathing through your nose difficult. A full face mask, which lets you breathe through your mouth during the night, could be the answer.
[End quote]

Of course you have to make sure the mask and other parts for the machine are scrupulously cleaned on a regular basis, following the user manual.

Best wishes.

Suad mouth appliances for sleep apnea reviews please about suad.

From my personal experience my dad was suffering from sleep disorders & this was confirmed by the doctor. Mouth appliances for sleep apnea will not going to help you, not even therapy or medication. The most common treatments for obstructive sleep apnea are dental appliances, CPAP machines, and surgery. Sleep apnea caused due to increase of obstacle or hindrance in the nasal passage which may lead to interrupted breathing during sleep. Sometimes weight loss can help , but not always. I will recommend you to use Asonor nasal spay to rid from sleep apnea and all your sleep disorder.

I went to my doctor to complain about my snoring and he said he thinks I may have OSAS. What exactly is that?

OSAS stands for obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. This is a condition where you stop breathing during sleep for more than 10 seconds, more than 5 times an hour. Snoring can sometimes be an indication of OSAS which is potentially dangerous, so it's important that your doctor follows up with some tests.

How do you know which CPAP snoring masks are best for you?

FOR ME I HAD TO HAVE A SLEEP STUDY DONE. IT IS A 2 DAY PROCESS. THEY HOOK UP ALL SORTS OF PROBS ON YOU AND MONITOR YOUR BREATHING. THE TEST WILL SHOW HOW MANY TIMES YOU STOP BREATHING. THEN YOU GO IN ON ANOTHER DAY AND THEY TRY DIFFERENT MASK DURING THE STUDY. ONCE YOU GET ACCUSTOM TO IT THEY MONITOR YOUR SLEEP AGAIN. THIS TIME, IF IT WORKS, YOU SLEEP THE REST OF THE NIGHT. FOR ME IT WAS WORTH IT.

How do I change the Pressure on my SleepStyle200

My P&P is a different model but I think in this matter they are the same. On one side of the machine, about 2/3 from the front, & on the bootom edge, there is a little removable panel about 2cms square. Remove this and you will see a plastic screw head, Turn this screw to the right to increase pressure. I would not advise you to adjust it willy nilly. I use a clear 5/16" PVC tube 3/4 filled with water. I found a few rubber bushes to seal one end of the tune into the water vessel. Before you start, hold both ends of the tube together in one hand forming a 'U' shape in the tube. Now using a marker, place a mark on each piece of tube corresponding to the water level. Being careful not to lose any of the water, attach one tube end to your machine. Sart your machine, press the ramp cancel button.& with a ruler, measure the distance between the levels of the water in both tubes. If the difference is say 8cms, then your pressure is now set at 8. As a long time sufferer, I offer two pieces of advice. 1 NEVER SLEEP ON YOUR BACK and 2. NEVER BREATHE THROUGH YOUR MOUTH. This is what I have to tell you after many hours and days of reserach. In fact, I tape over my mouth every night. I would be long gone by now if I didn't do this...I am 72
