@bayarea58 and @scoop
A thought came to me in that the Nurse Practitioner did not give me a reason why I should not to tape my mouth to keep it closed during sleep.
If I am reading it correctly you also, @bayarea, may not have been given a reason why the doctors said not to tape the mouth closed.
I wish I had asked "Why not, what harm does it do".
We breathe through our nose and the nose provides a filter. However as with other things it doesn't filter out everything.
The mouth has nothing to filter the air breathed in.
So yes, it would be good, nice, to understand, in general, why they say not to use the micropore tape to keep our mouth closed.
