I would like to hear about others experience with BiPAP machines

I have been using a BiPap for over 5 years using a full face mask. I also incorporate a chin strap; otherwise I sleep with an open mouth and when waking up, I can hardly talk due to dry mouth. The only issue I have is a red place on the bridge of my nose every morning. I have severe sleep apnea and don't use oxygen. Before the BiPap, I used a CPap for 7 years prior to the BiPap.
Blessings;

Hi, Thanks for answering . The dry mouth is a problem for me. I have the emphysema, so I thought the bipap could help me breathe also . I have been told that I have always had a problem keeping my mouth shut .! lol. The bipap sounds hard to get accustomed to. I just may have to try . Sleeping thru a whole night of controlled breathing sounds good . Be safe and Blessed Be, Crystal
