I am due for my 2nd sleep study May 5th, so my big day has yet to come. I have anxieties about how the air going in comes out. Interestingly enough I have chosen to try the Sullivan CPAP by ResMed, with variable ramp speeds as you mention. I'm glad to see I'm on the right track of purchasing a good machine. I'd love to hear from someone using this type of machine to inform me if I have made a wise choice. I still have time to change my mind, if this is not a wise choice. I work in the public sector and am concerned about the mask leaving marks on my face. Is this an unnecessary worry?
