I'm at the end of my second week on CPAP and it has been quite a journey.

I started with a Mirage Quattro and the shop I'm dealing with what the Quattro FX come in.

Keen to try a smaller mask I'm trialling both.

The FX gives me less AHI's anywhere from 0.7 to 1.9 whereas the Mirage is up around 4-5.

The biggest problem I'm having is the headgear/ mask leaving small marks on my face when I wake.

The headgear is "as loose" as I can make it and the shop are chasing up the Resmed rep to see if a headgear above "medium" exists.

Wondering if anyone else has had problems with the mask? It doesn't feel too tight, but the fact you can see the lower headgear marks especially for an hour after
waking is of a concern.

you may want to PM padacheek to see if she's got something that will work (or can come up with something).

She does a lot of padding for XPAP headgear
