CPAP Weirdness - PollCat - 05-05-2015 Per normal pre-bed procedure I refilled the humidifier, tripped the pre-heater, took my pills, nasal sprayed, brushed my teeth and punched the radio to my favorite classical music station. Climbing into bed, I donned the mask and grabbed my nook. I attempted to get comfortable and do a little reading; but it became clear that something was wrong. There was no air coming out of the nasal pillows no matter how hard I breathed. Back-tracking led me to discover that I'd failed to properly close the humidifier cover - what a relief, as I envisioned having to dig out the old travel machine. Or, worse having to send the S9 in for repairs. RE: CPAP Weirdness - PaytonA - 05-05-2015 Gee Pollcat, that has never happened to me but when it didn't happen the noise tipped me off. RE: CPAP Weirdness - justMongo - 05-05-2015 Gee, I've never done that either. Must be an Indy thing. Oh, wait, my dad was from Indy. You should get out your label maker and put a label near the start button: Humidifier Lid Closed? I have one that says: O2 ON? And, to I discovered a disadvantage to my FFM. If I remove, it's nearly impossible to get back on while lying on my side. RE: CPAP Weirdness - trish6hundred - 05-05-2015 Sometimes, what happens to me is that I think I closed the lid all the way, get in bed after masking up, only to hear this loud rushing sound coming from the machine. RE: CPAP Weirdness - JVinNE - 05-05-2015 I sometimes forget to hose back up. I should put a picture of Noo Noo on my nightstand. http://cyberneticzoo.com/wp-content/uploads/file/noo-noo-robotic-vacuum-cleamer.jpg |
