first night

Posted by tider on September 03, 2003 at 20:24:54:

last night was my first nignt with my new equip. (the ultra mirage and a heated hum.) After about one hour of adjusting the straps, I finally got to sleep. I think is was partly successful but did experience 2 probs. 1. The humid. caused moisture collection in the tube that finally spilled into my mask. I think I can turn down the gage and maybe correct this. 2. I noticed after waking after 3 hours os sleep, that I had a hard time geeting back to sleep because I had sort of a reverse apnea. I would breath in but could not exhale untill finally it blew out of my mouth. I am on 10 Tr. and wonder if maybe that is to strong for my exhale . Any comments? By the way, what is DMA?
