Requesting your help with deciding best therapy direction

I thought about making a homemade one, but it looks like they have a good record, so I doubt mine home made version would do me any good. I'd just like to try and get a better seal and more comfortable seal.

For me, if the AHI was sufficiently low (and I think in both cases yours are), then I'd go for comfort: Which setting lets me sleep most comfortably and wake up and function better during the day?

I'm not sure I would demand the difference be "feel superhuman" to go with the scenario with the marginally higher AHI. I'd simply set the standard at "which mask/pressure setting" lets me function "better"---even if "better" is not "better by huge, fantastic amount."

I'd be in a conundrum if one setting was more comfortable to sleep with, but the other allowed me to function marginally better.

Thanks Randy... I just called them and placed an order for the liner. I didn't order the anti-leak strap, and now I wonder if I should have, but I will give this a try. I guess I could always just wrap a bunge cord around my head if I really need it.
