She had a NAII circulating in Canada last I heard. She should check in and be able to tell you the status soon.

Sounds good and interesting.
I'm sitting here rubbing my burning eyes due to my current (Acclaim 2) mask leaking air into my eyes. I was thinking of trying either a nasal prong mask or nasal cushion but maybe my thinking is wrong? I'm ready to make some changes to overcome this problem.

I tried the mask about a month ago and then it went to British Columbia,so it may still be there.Now the Nasal Prong is my favorite mask.Do a search of nasal prong mask and you are sure to find Babbette's post with her e-mail address.

YUP! It's in BC now, headed to Ontario next. PM me your info and I'll gladly put you on the list!!!

BTW, just so ya'll know - Miss Expert here plugged in a new mask last night and managed to get leaks all night. I finally decided it was the angle of the side hose securing velcro straps. Not sure exactly why, but for some reason, the same old chin strap was just a scooge wrong with the new mask. Go figure. I figured out I could pull the side hoses down a bit, and create a better angle and then got some sleep. Sigh... So, it's never perfect.

Unless you're Jerry, of course.

PM me!!!!
