Bi-Pap machines

Hi

I was having problems with the Nippy or BI-Pap machine. So I called Harefield Respiratory department who sent me the nasal version. Tried if for a couple of hours this afternoon just reading. It is not so invasive, once I have the hang of the straps and head holster, I shall give it a go tonight. Who knows, might even sleep?

Take care

Malinka

I would be interested to hear how you get on with it. My 14 yr old son has recently been put on it but so far has resisted having it on overnight. He will tolerate it for an hour before bedtime but that's it. He has learning difficulties so I can't explain to him why he needs it.
