CPAP PRO Mask

I am interested in getting a mask made by CPAP PRO of Los Angeles, CA that fits in both nostrils and also has a molded mouthpiece of hard plastic.

Side Effects

No, I was having trouble staying awake during the day before taking Cozaar also. The fatigue may have intensified some, but I do not see any direct correlation.
