HOSE IT GOING?

Just do a screen shot. Save it as a jpeg file. No need to worry about cropping. Send it as an attachment just like you would a photo from your trip. Let me know if you would like for me to post it here for you to have others comment on.
Takes me all of about 5 seconds to do that. Not any trouble at all. Let me know if you don't still have my personal email addy.

Comments: Restless night. I used the machine for more than 7 hours but I can't say I slept for 7 hours.
I did looooooooosen the straps on the mask so that I could get my finger comfortably underneath. My nose is still sore this morning but I hope in the days ahead it will start to heal.

Comments: Loosening the straps didn't result in more leaking but now the air that does leak goes right into my eyes. Very uncomfortable!

Comments: I tried moleskin (Dr Scholl's Molefoam) - lots of pain and blood and a frowny face.

Comments: Mr. Red Frowny Face showed up again this morning. The moleskin is helping with the sore but it is so thick that it compromises the seal. I guess I just have to put up with lots of leaking until the sore is healed and I can move on to another mask.

Comments: I tried the chinstrap again. It seems to have stabilised the mask so there was less movement of the silicone on my nose. That seems to have helped with the nose sore.

Comments: The chinstrap seems to be working to prevent the mask from rubbing against my nose.

Edit: I am still waking up at around 5:30 and drifting in and out of sleep for another 45mins until I get up, usually around 6:15am.
How do I get these 45 mins back as quality sleep? Right now I am lying down in my bed all masked up between 10:15 and 10:30pm.
