Anyone have experience with the SoClean Machine?

Throat swallowing issues. like a thick phlegm matter. I have 2 SoClean machines that i have used regularly over the last 3 years. Breathing has shortened a little with sometimes having a hard time getting a full breath in.
I am told know not to use my cpap machines they will be replaced. Both machines (due to 2 residences). One machine shut down after recall and one still works. I am being told they are both going to be replaced and have claims in on both. Would be nice to get the answers on Philips Respironics and SoClean replacements. Hard to sleep at night. Someone call or email.

Hi @martinmcdonald, I'm going to bring @johnbishop into this discussion. He also dealt with the CPAP model recall.

Hi Martin @martinmcdonald, I received an update from Philips on the recall April 18th. You can read more about their replacement plan and priority here - https://www.usa.philips.com/healthcare/e/sleep/communications/src-update/news/important-information-about-patient-prioritization.

Thanks for the tag @colleenyoung. I also have 2 Philips CPAPs on the recall - a Dreamstation and a Dreamstation Go portable CPAP. When the recall was announced I purchased a ResMed AirMini because I like the smaller size and can travel with it if necessary. I also use a SoClean 3 that I purchased at the end of last year to replace a SoClean 2. I'm sorry to hear that you are having trouble sleeping. Have you discussed your symptoms with your doctor or sleep medicine therapist?

Buy a new cpap machine. Also the so clean is not great. Better to just clean out your cpap on your own.
