Thanks for your quick response. Is there or could there be a list of recommended durable medical equipment techs?

I started on cpap about 4 weeks ago. I've been using an amara view mask and a dreamwear full face. I seem to be somewhere in the middle of small & medium sizes. Is it better to use one that's a bit too small or one that's a bit too large? Thanks

Hi all - I'm a new cpap user. I'm a 73 yr. old woman who spent the last 2 years going to different doctors to try to figure out why I was getting weaker & out of breath more easily. I finally had a sleep study done & have severe apnea. I've been using the dreamstation with an amara view mask for 2 weeks now. Much to my surprise I find the whole thing pretty easy to use & actually fall asleep faster than without it. Yesterday was the 1st time in many months that I could climb the stairs to my 2nd story without gasping for air. Yay!!!! I hope things continue to improve. I didn't do any research on equipment before they delivered my devices - I was disappointed by the technician who was very abrupt & dismissive. I'm mostly finding out how to use & care for things from the internet. I hope I have the right machine, anyway - just wanted to check in and thank all for the advice given here. - Linda
