felt mask was leaking last night...felt rough as a badgers a=ù:e last night.

It seems to blow the mask off my face,
Believe me, there are people on here with pressures much higher than yours - and the masks handle it. It is hard to believe it, and that is why you are encouraged to try the mask on the fitting setting.

It is hard to get used to it, and it is not a normal feeling. The mask is going to inflate and move a way from your face a little, but that is how the seal works.

Persevere, and you will begin to get the hang of this.
Thanks for the reply.

I am wandering if the mask itself isnt inflating enough and this is why bridge of nose gets sore?
If the hard plastic is too close to your nose, because the soft silicone is not ballooning away enough.......
