CPAP machine for travel

@johnbishop Do you know if they make a travel BIPAP? My ResMed is pretty compact and easy to pack and unpack. Where I live, in high desert, humidity is low enough that I need a humidifier, or my airway gets dry. Some of my meds are prone to causing dry mouth, so I use Bioteen mouthwash at bedtime, and I have a spray version of it on my nightstand, next to the Bioteen lozenges.

I'd better stop before this post turns into a novel.

Hi @jimhd I think there are some newer more compact BIPAP machines that are easier to pack and take with you. I found some reviews that point to the ResMed AirCurve 10 VAuto w/ Humidifier as one of the smallest/best BIPAP machines. I get a little confused reading the reviews trying to determine if it's a BIPAP machine - the list says it is but reading the description on the manufacturers website seems to reference it as an Auto CPAP. I would have a discussion with the medical store before making a decision. Here's one of the review sites I found that may be helpful.
