New Comfort Curve Mask

HMB · Post by **HMB** » Fri May 27, 2005 8:05 pm

Hi,
I have had a cpap and or bipap machine for about 8 years. I have tried dozens of masks and nasal pillows. I ordered the new Comfort Curve and it sure sounded good to me. Have had it now for 3 days and I just can't seem to get the mask adjusted. I have tried S,M,L and adjusted the pads up and down, the head gear strap as tight as possible. Still no seal and no way near being able to sleep. My pressure is 19/13 on the bipap. Is there anyone out there with a problem or success story.
Thanks, Helen

Hi Helen,

Comfort Curve didn't work for me. Here are some clickable links to topics about it. As with any mask, some love it, some hate it, some are "fixing" it to suit them.

I've come to understand that people with high pressure seem to have trouble making it seal. I have fairly low pressure -- 8 -- and I think that is a part of why it works so well for me. But maybe someone with high pressure has had better luck and can weigh in and advise and confirm or correct my perception.
