Radiation therapy and CPAP mask

I’m waiting on biopsy results for a small bump on my nose. If it’s cancerous, it will require Mohs surgery and a large bandage. It could also mean radiation in that area. Thinking ahead if either is the case, how do I use my nasal pillow CPAP headgear? I saw my sleep Dr last week and asked him…he’s into alternative medicine (I’m not) and simply recommended not having surgery. I take that as a quack response (he tries to pedal supplements every time I see him). So he’s no help whatsoever. Any suggestions? I looked at the new type nasal pillow mask without headstraps, but they stick on with sticky tape around the nose, where my surgical wound will be.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

@jakefix82, I'm tagging @dpost2 and @johnbishop to see if they have any ideas.

Jake, what was the result of the biopsy? will you have MOHs surgery?
