nose pillows

Post by TennJane » Fri Apr 22, 2005 10:16 pm

THANKS!!

Because of posts here, I went and got the next size nose pillow....guess what....the leaking has pretty much stopped!! (this makes me sooooo happy)

I am so thankful for this forum. Not only have I learned so much about my condition, but I feel I am not really alone with this anymore....

happy (and restful) sleep to one and all

I use Mirage Swift Nasal Pillow. I was fitted with the small, but after reading a post here, I decided that maybe the medium might work for me....it gives me a much better fit.

I am so thrilled with the much better nights' sleep!

I like this interface as well. As much as I rock and roll at night, I still break the seal but not bad.

Ditto, I started with the medium and not wanting to admit that I need yet something else labeled "LARGE" I held off using the next size up--the large. But I was getting hisses, leaks, with the medium, so I broke down, used the ''large'' and presto, less hissing....leaking.....

Seems to be a good solution.

Has anybody seen an extra large size available for the Swift? I may want to try it if there is.
