They were not.
My cousins know where to hide.

Do you use Ayrs nasal saline gel or some other product with your P10 for stickiness?

Beware the schoolyard bullies, mean girls, and fragile male egos. Move along if you can’t be kind.

Nope.
I just blow my nose when I wake up.
If not, my sneezing can make some real comedy.

I also use the Resmed p10 with nasal pillow. My skin irritation problem is different from what is described here - the tip of my nose, as well as the other parts that touch the silicone have begun breaking out into small blisters and bumps. I need some protective barrier from the silicone. Any ideas?
