Chipmunk cheeks is just in the last two weeks and thats when I got to playing with my pressure. I'll check the previous settings but I believe I upped the settings. When I look back through my data i was around 8-11 for pressure, I'll have to look at what the max settings were. that's why I have been concerced because I don't know why i'd need all this pressure all the sudden, plus the chipmunk cheeks started with the large surge in pressure.

two things-

when you get the chance, could you go to your profile and input your machine and mask? once you do, it'll show up at the bottom of each of your posts, like mine does below. thanks.

that's important because i had to scroll back to see what kind of mask you had. now that i see it's a pillow mask..

second thing-i've had great success keeping my lips zipped and my jaw up using a firm foam cervical collar and scuncis. like this-

might work for you?

good luck!
