Did a forum search for 'pillows'. Got a lot of hits for 'nasal pillows' and similar
Currently using a pillow with shredded memory foam (typical pillow shape) and wearing a full face mask. Sometimes when I roll over or change position the mask looses seal or just isn't comfortable at times with the mask. Wondering if a wedge, contoured, or other type pillow might work better and might be more comfortable? What have you found to work well for you?

You can get special Cpap pillows, contoured for side sleeping - Google 'Cpap pillows' and see what's what.

"Blessed" with a short neck, I cannot stand thick pillows; so my strategy is Bed Bath, and Beyond,
where I can actually feel the pillow for thickness, loft, and softness.
My current fave was scored in the clearance corner--and I used a COUPON!
No way do I plan to risk mail order.

I did amazon but I got one where you could adjust by adding or removing the stuffing. I hate high loft I want a flat pillow. Lol.

I think I saw that pillow--but the price made me drop my kolace.

Oh I didn't pay that price lol. I got it on one of amazon deal days. last year. I won't pay that (ok well let me rephrase since the stupid Pandemic I can't pay that for a pillow anymore ). I hope it lasts a good long time next time I get a pillow it will probably be from goodwill.
