Hello people

I have this thing in the wee hours of morning I'd wake up and sneeze [whist the mask is on] and I seem have the unpleasent task of cleaning out all the gunk out of as I manage to decorate my chest as well as the mask! This happens quite often during the cooler mths where I am. Nothing worse then having to clean out your nasal mask during the middle of the night!

Gosh it is real messy thing to have keep doing, as I tried tiger blam, nearly killed my sinuses whist at it as it really burns. Plus I wrap up the tube with my dad's old PJ's pants legs and often have spary nesonex up my sinues as well. I sneeze in morning as soon as the mask removed and I sneeze during the night after having condensation dripping down my nose!

During the cooler mths I am often sniffing or in my terms, SNUFFLING!!!! As I do it all day long snuffling around the place, they know I am there. Just listen out for the snuffling and sneezing that comes with it! I am a non stop snuffler. Plus the various sneezing fits with mask and without masks is alway giving me away! Not many people like sleeping with me either! I think it's the cpap machine that keeps em awake, me I drop off and am sleeping within half an hour or so.

Hi Snuffle,

If you aren't suffering from high blood pressure, and your doctor approves of you taking a sinus med, I would try Claritan D or the generic equivalant. It will dry you up for the colder times and hopefully keep you from cleaning out your mask so often.
