A full mask for a big nose

Post by log » Mon Apr 19, 2021 6:51 pm

I'm a new Cpap user and have a question as to masks that may work with a nose that is to high at the bridge for a Resmed F20 soft seal? My Med supply insisted it would be fine, but the next morning I was holding an ice pack on my nose. They said, Oh, and sent an F30 which is better, but leaks around the nose and allows my jaw to drop so the bottom edge is in my mouth. A cervical collar fixed that and am getting good numbers since I changed the machine, Resmed Airsense 10 back to Cpap from Apap and set the pressure to my prescription of 19cm H2O. Diagnosed at 48 Ahi. Apap 7-20 set by the provider was getting double digits up to 37 mostly around 20. Changing their setting to 19 cm H2O and am getting 1.7 to 4.0 so it is working, but blows in my eyes sometimes. Looking for a full mask that fits my face.
