Hi Molly,
What mask do you use? I have tried several full face masks and they all seem to leak. This may be a fitting issue, but I have tried for the last year to find the proper fitting mask for me. My provider has two to three to choose from and I don't know where to go from here, Thank you for bring the subject of being your best frien up. I sleep much better but only for short periods due to leaks and rearranging my mask!

What kind of mask do you use. I'm getting one tomorrow. I'm hoping it also works for me.

Same problems as you~leaks and rearranging the tubing keep me from sleeping well. Battling with this for many years and have tried numerous types of masks. Have never felt the benefits that others speak of. Is it even worth it to continue?<br><br>

Hello,
I have the AirFit F10 Full Face Mask System. I hope all goes well for you tomorrow! Cpap therapy can make a big difference in your overall health and how you feel. Keep in touch and nice meeting you.

Hello,
It is great to know that someone else has the same problems. I keep trying because I know the health benefits and did notice a small difference in sleep quality if only for a few hours. But feeling wonderful as other people I have talked with has not yet happened for me either. I have been non compliant for a year and am trying again always hoping something will change. What mask do you have if I may ask? Nice to meet you.

HI I USE SWIFT FX NASAL PILLOWS SYSTEM AND IT IS VERY CONFORTABLE IS FROM RESMED

I to am on CPAP treatment for a month now. I stop breathing several times a night also. I just got the prescription changed this week. I thought that this machine was suppose to help cut down on the number of episodes. I know it does get me breathing again when I stop. The first machine I had made me feel as tho I couldn't breath. This one is more comfortable to wear. I still wake up so tired. Hope this will improve intime.

Hi @hosta it will get better!! Just might take alittle adjusting. I stop breathing 63 times an hour. Now my episodes are 1-2 an hour. My blood pressure is 10xs worse when I don't use the machine and I am very tired. Now I use my machine 100% of the time. So now when I have those problems we know it's not the Apnea. Hang in there.

It gets better
Dawn

Thanks dawn I do use it every night. I'm not going to give up on it. The only thing is that my son died of sleep apnea and I can't help thinking about that. He was not on the CPAP. I think I will see about the nasal pillow to see if that helps.

So sorry to here about your son. It is definitely a motivator to keep at it. Praying you can find a solution soon.

Prayers
Dawn
