anyone bought the mask from overseas Resmed shops before? I am going to China in a couple of months time. Saw the Resmed online (CN) selling the masks (i.e. Resmed airfit 30I at ard SGD $150, which is still cheaper than the local SG sellers.

Will probably get a couple models and give it a try.

i just bought apex auto last week from https://www.respshop.com ... will receive this week. take note the oversea shipping fee and make use of the 20% off for first order.

their price for the mask are around the same.

First time using Cpap device last night, I removed it after 5 hours. Hard to fall asleep, maybe need some time to get used to it.

How long did you guys take to be able to sleep well with it?

Ah, China would be via taobao? Because I've rented autosense10, and would like to stick to the model itself. A little afraid of the authenticity of China resmed products on taobao. Any trusted seller?

How often you guys clean the resmed mask and tubing? Really daily and weekly? I find it so troublesome. If don’t clean really will degrade?

I now on 1 mth trial of resmed 10. I still can’t sleep through the night with it. Every night just unplug 3 hrs later. Can’t fall asleep with it

Have you guys tried the following methods:

1. Force waking up at dawn
2. Vitamin D 20k + magnesium daily
3. Hot sun exposure during the afternoon: 10 mins for lighter skin, 20 mins for darker skin daily
4. Carnivore or keto diet
5. Strength training, i.e. squat or deadlift more than 130kg
6. Breathing exercises: e.g. Box breathing
