Re: elloooo everyone
Do you mouth breathe? If you can keep from mouth breathing, you might give nasal pillows that a try. I've got a flexifit 432 as a backup. No comparison. Not even close. I use the Swift LT. Currently I have to tape my mouth closed, but I'm hoping to "grow out of that". But it's worth it to use nasal pillows.llurs wrote:ahh thats so kind thank you, its a devilbliss, masks flexifit 431. dont know if thats any help. its fine till i move then just seems to leak!!! and im awake again. feel absolutly knackered most the time, at work my brain feels like mush. any tips would be welcome and il deffo spend some time searching thru everyones messages xbdp522 wrote:Welcome to the forum!
