yay! glad your new mask is working out for you.

A healthy attitude and stick-to-it-ness is a big part of getting used to and being sucessful with CPAP therapy.

Glad to see you back. And glad to see you have a better fitting mask. They really aren't supposed to hurt, so that was definitely a problem to correct.

Who would have thought it would be this challenging to sleep and breathe at the same time?

Monica,

Congrats on sticking with it, the process can be hard in the beginning. Finding the right mask is key, but can be really hard to do. Glad to see you 'out of the corner'. I'm not sure why you were there, but sometimes the 'tough love' can be harsh, however you stuck with it, and as you can see, sticking with it has paid off. Hope you are feeling better with the proper sleep.

Good luck & don't stay in that corner.
Jen
