Gain weight in face: new mask?

Post by Jerseyguy » Thu Feb 28, 2019 9:49 pm

I gained a lot of weight recently (I know it's bad for the sleep apnea) some of it in my face, is it possible that I need to move from a medium to large cushion on my eson 2. It feels more uncomfortable than usual.

i know nothing about your mask, but i'll answer anyway! :lol: if your mask came with an assortment of cushion sizes, why not try out the large cushion and see?

and if it didn't, please pardon my suggestion.
