Just straight out of the box - long before I went to bed - I could just tell the new pillows felt wrong. They didn't "mate" right with my nostrils (yes, they were the same Large size I'd had before). This was not connected to the hose or machine, just held to my nose first by hand, then with the headgear. The fit felt wrong.
And it's "felt wrong" going on each night too. Not terribly wrong, but not "comfortable as an old shoe" as its predecessor became.
Still, I've slept great each night.
But my new leak numbers confirm my concerns about the mask/pillow fit.
For perspective, here are my April leak numbers:
- 4 l/m 4/1
- 0 l/m 4/2-21
- 6 l/m 4/22
- 1 l/m 4/23
- Then 14, 22, 25 on the nights with the new pillows
I've contacted my CPAP vendor and am waiting on a response. The online videos from Resmed are so elementary as to be useless - nothing there I didn't know.
Suggestions?
BTW, my AHI for those three nights were 0.5, 1.3, 1.0. Fairly typical for this month, although I'd had just three AHIs at or above 1 prior to this, then two the last two nights.
