Re: Please help me find a mask/solution that I can tolerate

Unfortunately the lanolin did not really help as I still had the sensory issues from before. bummer. let's hope the cloth mask works. I'm going to try the full (covers entire face) mask when it comes in. If that doesn't work I will try a cloth mask. Any suggestions on which one given my issues? Tha...

Re: Please help me find a mask/solution that I can tolerate

Soft fabric, so lightweight and cool. Tricky to wear, but worth the effort. Ordered this one a few days ago. Waiting for it to come ...

Re: Please help me find a mask/solution that I can tolerate

Glad you posted--it sounds like you are committed to finding the right mask. It's not easy. A lot of people have sensory issues and faced similar challenges at first. What helped me a lot in the beginning was using a mask liner from Padacheek.com. She uses a soft, smooth material that's like burrow...

Re: instructions for at home titration?

I will occasionally wake up with an itch and take the mask off for a second to scratch my face. I am using the n30i. I feel that it pushes a little bit just below my nose. I also don't like anything on my face so I am quite sensitive to the mask.
