New to CPAP - Is this normal??
I have had my CPAP for about one month now, but through trial and error I am on my 3rd mask and have only had it for about 1 week now. All I can stand is about 4-5 hours with the mask and then I take it off and give up for the night so I won't loose anymore sleep. The FF mask fits well and does not ...

Hello! I am in the same situation too. I have had my CPAP machine for about 3 weeks now. I am on my second mask, second chin strap and can't keep it on for more than 2 hours a night. I have no idea if this is normal, but the only way this is working for me is to ease myself into the whole process. H...

Wow....I can't belive you are getting such great results so quickly. Consider yourself lucky. I have had my machine for 3 weeks now and I have been through 3 masks and 2 chin straps and can only handle the machine for about 1 to 2 hours a night until I start mouth breathing or my face gets irritated...
