I’ve been using CPAP for about six weeks now. Use a Resmed Airsense 10 machine with Dreamwear nasal pillow. The paperwork the sleep tech gave me says to replace the pillow every two weeks. I did use a new one after about three weeks because it seemed like part of the mask was “flapping in the wind” for lack of a better description. Replacement is now at about three weeks with no issues. Replacement at two weeks seems unnecessary. Is there a reason for this replacement frequency? Do the masks wear out? Thanks.
I just finished my fourth week using the ResMed with nasal pillow and heated tube. My first nights were terrible. It’s not great yet, but it has gotten much easier. Keep with it. I had to experiment with sleeping positions to minimize leakage. You will find what works. My diagnosed AHI was 21 events per hour. My average AHI with therapy is 0.34. This forum has been very helpful and encouraging. Good luck.
