Fullface Mask and Chinstrap update

Post by FatiguedMe » Wed Apr 08, 2009 8:11 am

I must say using the chinstrap with the full face mask is such an improvement for me. I still can breath thru mouth if I need too, but I am not waking up with a sore, dry, mouth and throat. Plus my mouth is not opened from here to Hawaii and back LOL!
Now still am looking for my best mask. I ordered the Liberty and am gonna try that one, also gonna go thru DME to get the Quattro to see how that one does. I feel like I am running out of mask options! Everybody pray I find my best option! Nasal pillows (alone) and nose masks just don't work for me, even with chinstrap I breath mostly thru mouth! ACKKK!
( and I am NOT a big talker, so I know I am not talking in my sleep!) :giggle:
