What I need help with is, why does my nose get itchy? I have to shut the machine off and unhook the mask to scratch my nose and that wakes me up too much. How do I stop that.
Mimi, some folks rub their nose before maskup and that seems to help them avoid the itchy nose later. As I've never experienced that, I'm just passing along what I've read here.
