LOL. Native Texan, now Tennessean for 2 years, back to Texas by Summer. Sometimes I say the darndest things!

To the previous poster. The "Hybrid" actually has the nasal pillows and mouth cover all in one. That is why it is called a "Hybrid". Still looking for experiences with that at high pressure.

Almost 3 weeks into treatment, I am rid of the Mirage Ultra FF Mask and am using Swift Nasal Pillows (due to the other's straps rubbing the back of my neck and causing an abscess). I use the Deluxe Chin Strap with it (the wide white elastic one) and am thrilled with how much more comfortable I am than when I started. I have figured out how to adjust my pillow for side sleeping and getting about 5-5 1/2 hours sleep w/o waking. Still not perfect but getting there!!

Good luck.

Louise
