Masks?

Post by JayLederman » Thu Dec 11, 2008 2:34 pm

I have been a cpap user on and off for about one year. I currently use a mirage activa nasal mask... and it sucks! when and if I fall asleep small beads of condensation build up around the nose guard,pockets of moisture from the humidifier. It's pretty annoying since they drip down my face and disturb me in my sleep. I move a lot in my sleep and this mask is pretty mobile, I'm just curious if there is any other people with this problem and what masks are better for people who move a lot in their sleep. thanks

Hi there! I'm a very mobile side sleeper / flopper. I prefer the Nasal Aire II. It stays with me, and I have very little condensation issues. Of course, that will also be dependent on your ambient room temperature, whether you have a heated hose or a hose cover, and what setting your humidifier is on.

I run a free test drive for this mask. PM me and I'll put you on the list.

Good luck!
