Masks Ive tried

Post by zinnia » Sun Jan 21, 2018 1:33 pm

Wow this is so difficult. Still trying to find a mask since the end of Nov. I used an Eson Nasal during sleep study. Cant cope with vertical plastic bar on forehead. F & P Bevida Pillow didnt give me enough air. Couldnt sleep at all. ResMed Airfit N20 was most comfortable but caused chipmunk cheeks and leakage and dry mouth. ResMed F20 caused leakage rate at 90! Now Im using Amara Full View. Getting the best leakage results on myair.com but very difficult to adjust on my face because of leaks. I will stay with this one and try to endure because the other leakage rates were around 40 to 50 . a

I thought I read people with Amara view that are having leaks could have it to tight. Try loosening it up a little bit if it might be tight
