Ok, my resp tech exchanged my full face mask with a snapp-x nasal pillow system. I tried it for about 3 nights and it was a BIG improvement over the full face mask! Meanwhile my dad shipped me his 6 month old swift mirage nasal pillow mask..and it was BETTER than the snapp system in my opinion! It w...

Thank you all for your advise. The full face mask was just the mask given to me a tritation to try, and since it had results, they didnt offer me a different type. I dont have any nasal congestion. I will also look into an autopap machine. I will see what my DME providers says. Thats why I enjoy thi...

Its been a week now since I dropped the pressure from 11 to 9, and I worked it up until 10 with no aerophalgia! But at 11..it returns with a vengeance. My sleep has been great, but I have developed another problem. My full face mask as loose as I can get it without compromising my seal, has left a p...

my machine is straight cpap, and I dont have EPR, not sure what that is though. My titration was prescribed at 11. Now, during my second sleep study, when fitted, I had a full beard. I also never got a good seal with the full face mask supplied. The therapist put some gause under my chin to help all...

PROGRESS!
I used cpap for the first time 2 days ago, really excited and positive. I've had apnea probably for 20 years(out of 37) before my diagnosis, because I never could sleep through the night, and am always tired. My dad has it and convinced me to get checked. The first night I slept for 2 three hour per...
