Re: Help Please

Help Please

I have been using CPAP for almost 6 months. I have the Quattro Air mask and it doesn't seem to get along with me. I wake up most mornings with a sore and/or bruised nose bridge as well as an extremely dry mouth (due to allergies, I need a FFM). I have tried the Padacheek liner and then I get crazy l...

I still usually push the button to turn it off (especially if I have to get up in the middle of the night so I don't wake my fiance with the crazy...

New to CPAP

I just got my CPAP last Friday. It really helps my sleep, but it also leads to my face being very dry.
