Hi everyone! I'm brand new and have been on CPAP for about 3 week and I just completed day 19 of 21 to 'qualify' for insurance. I am highly motivated and would love to get consensus on several things in here. I'll start with the mask dilemma. I have always been a 'partial' mouth breather but I'm trying to 'train' myself NOT to be so I can use the nasal only mask without chin straps and/or tape!
For anyone that has used 'both' the x30i and the f30i, which did you prefer and why?

The x30i is so expensive my DME will not supply it. The reimbursement from Medicare plus my copay is not enough to cover my DME's cost.
