Neverbetter...why didn't you post this when I asked about my nose? Nobody ever answers my posts...hardly ever. I know I'm new and not in the loop but this sounds like the answer to my nose problem...the hubby just happens to have ear plugs...just like the ones you refer to because my mask was making...

What is the best full face mask for a sore nose? I'm using the flexfit 431 full face. Used to use mirage quattro but it really made the bridge of my nose really sore and red and almost blistered. The flexfit isn't as bad. Is there one out there? Please respond ...I really need a break!! I look like ...

When you find it...let us know!!!

What comfort pads for the nose are we talking about? My nose is in terrible shape!!

I get the sore nose with both and the mirage quattro (use a bandaid) but I really like the 431 and the quattro. I think if I keep tweaking the 43...

Hello Cynop

Hey Cynop....I was using the mirage quattro. It worked pretty good for about a week then....started just flying off my face. Not stopping those leaks...night after night... can really cause a person to go insane...sleep is sooo important! I use high pressure bipap too...right now it is 18/10 because...

Should I put the mask on and fit it ...then...turn on my machine or turn on the machine first then put on the mask?

How do you know what your leak rate is? I'm new to this stuff and I didn't see anything in my literature about it. I'm on bipap and my numbers are 18/10....what would a good(?) or bad leak would be?

I think I've found my bipap mask. Got the FP flex fit 431 and have used it 3 nights. Got the straps all fixed good and had the best night of sleep last night for some time.

.....there's always a plastic bag!!! just saying.....

I'm just about to get the flexfit 431....are you saying I shouldn't?

Ok....I'm new so not quite understanding everything...but I do have a question. I'm on bipap...18/10 and wondering what mask would be a good fit for these numbers. I need a full face because I am a mouth breather...no..I couldn't train my tongue to stop it!! Can anyone help...all suggestions welcomed.
