I have found my mask

Post by dusty0318 » Mon Sep 19, 2011 10:07 pm

It's the Swift FX for Her. I'm averaging a leak rate between 0 and .16 and have not had to use the chin strap yet. My only complaint is the exhaust freezing my arms. I expect to have that solved by getting a friend to sew me some arm warmers. I am very pleased.

Congrats! 90% of this therapy is finding the mask that works for you..... Here's to many nights of deep, restful sleep!
Yes, that blue eyed beauty is my cat! He is a seal point, bi-color Ragdoll. I adopted him in '08 from folks who could no longer care for him. He is a joy and makes me smile each and every day.

LOL on the freezing arms, b/c I have the same problem. I now wear long sleeve PJs all year around, or long sleeve "T" shirts.

Yay for the mask!
