I tried the MoJo mask at the recommendation of my DME. Used it for about one hour the first night and back to my Ultra. The mask is too small to create a good seal around my mouth. When I relaxed my mouth and jaw it created large leaks around the corners of my mouth.

My wife and I are both on CPAP, both at the same pressure (16). Unfortunately, she has had a very bad case of pneumonia and has not really had a chance to use hers.

Any Mojo Users?

My DME supplier is trying to talk me into using a Mojo - my UM leaks a lot and she believes the Mojo will provide a better seal.

Thanks,
Michael

I too use a full face. I find that I can inhale through my nose, but have trouble exhaling susficiently through the nose. I feel like I can not force the pressure enough to get a good exhalation (pressure at 16).

I have been experiencing the same thing! Thought it was just me - glad to hear others have the same issue. Have generally been waking at about 3:30 rather than my usual 5 am. I have taken the mask off and drifted in and out of sleep for an hour or so, but then feel worse. Think I will try to adjust ...

Sleeper, I am about where you are. Last night I was thinking that I deal with stress all day, and here I am stressing about stopping leaks and getting the mask comfortable enough to get to sleep. When I woke this morning, I felt rested and awake. That makes it worth it! Guess I will keep working on ...
