This first URL is horribly long, but it's a stock photo derived from a google search:

I will try the collar to see what difference it might make.

If I ask my general doctor for a prescription, should I ask for a particular machine? I am wondering if Medicare would pay for a new machine if I need to change? It is less than 5 years ago that I got the Dreamstation...probably 4 years ago...I’d have to check.

Woops!  I forgot about our rules, and do apologize.  I will try not to do that again in future.  Sorry.

Hi Littlefatcat:

Regarding taping, I use the sensitive skin paper tape, but remove it by using a cotton ball soaked in baby oil.  I slowly remove the tape only after it is really saturated with the oil.   Then on to washing my face.   I keep an old medication bottle near the sink with a few cotton balls saturated with the oil near the sink.  If well soaked , they last a long time.

Good luck!
