Re: Firefighter new to cpap, in need of some help.
I always wondered why they can make masks for fighter pilots, etc. that don't leak, but for the rest of us it's a joke. I have ordered the new gel seal thingy that I read about here the other day. I am hoping it works.

Re: CPAP Pad (gel pad)
I also got my conformation letter that stated they got rid of the scent. I hope, hope, hope this works well. Good luck to all of us who ordered it.

Re: Need help with Forma mask leaks
I liked the idea of the cushion on the forma. It seemed like it would feel better on my cheeks area. I've gone back to the Quattro. It seems the one I always go. back to.

Re: Just got my new Forma FFM
It's the middle of the night and I just switched back to my Quattro. The forma just won't stop leaking no matter what I do. as soon as I relax my chin a little it leaks like crazy.

Re: Just got my new Forma FFM
Not a good night. I battled leaks all night long even though it was comfortable. Tonight I am going to change to my old headgear because this one is too long for my head. We'll see what happens.

Re: Need help with Forma mask leaks
Last night was my first night with the Forma. I was disappointed. I had the same problems you had and spent most of the night adjusting it. It felt like it was going to blow off my face at times and the leaks were constant. I am going to try to adapt my old headgear to it, as this headgear is too lo...

Just got my new Forma FFM
I just took my new Forma mask out of the box. I can't wait to try it. It seems to have features that I like, It comes with two different size liners that are soft foam with shaping to them so that it will fit the contours of the face. I'll let you know in the morning how I amke out with it.

Re: Full Face Mask worst option according to professionals?
I breath though my mouth, so a FFM is the ONLY option I have. What do "professionals" know, anyway ?

Re: I need help finding a mask that doesn't leak.
Welcome to the club. I have gone through the same thing and so have many others. It's just trial and error. I am waiting for a new mask as we speak. Every ones face is different and has curves and unfortunately the mask designers make them for flat faces. If you get the nose right, the chin leaks an...

Ordered the Forma today
I just ordered the FP Forma and have high hopes. The Res Med seal has gotten so flimsy that even when new doesn't cushion the way I would like. I will llet you know how it works out.

Re: I found my holy grail! I'll give away the rest.
Called my DME and the girl was ...." duh???? I'll look into it and call you back." I'm still waiting.
How does it feel having your whole face covered? Last night my quattro was uncomfortable because we are having a heat wave.

Re: How often do you see your Doctor?
Never did see a doctor. Had a sleep study done and got a report by mail. Probably better that way. I get my info here, from the REAL experts.
