Re: Face pain
I believe it is due to pain that I experience from the mask. It sounds like you are not certain. :? I’m not certain at all, but to me it is the most obvious side effect of treatment.

Face pain
Hi. I have been using an APAP for almost two years. The longest I have been able to keep it on in a single night is 4.5 hours, my typical time is 1 hour or less.
