Re: I can't keep my mask on and it's not the mask's fault

The DME thought that the medium Simplus was too big for my face so she gave me a small Quattro. It fits better and leaks less but is really confining. I have ADHD and am really sensitive.

Nope, houndlover...just the regular dmv. I've read that other people are recieving this threat as well.

Re: I feel better without my CPAP
