AutoPap & Heated Humidifer

Posted by adjusted on February 01, 2006 at 18:15:54:
I just came from an appointment with my sleep doctor. I asked about AutoPap, and he said it doesn't come with a humidifier because any water that might enter the system would cause damage. Is this true? If so, how would I keep my nose from getting so dry? My pressure was just increased from 8 to 10, and now, following this appointment, he's increasing it to 12! I can't imagine trying to keep up this pressure without heated humidity.
