I took a while, worst for me was the sudden leaks when I went on my side ( full face mask) could wear a partial mask if they made the nose holes a bit bigger.

@tisme - totally worth a conversation with your provider and/or the medical device store to see what they might have for you instead. I do remember trying a mask with nose holes that felt pretty restrictive, and it made me feel uncomfortable about my breathing well through it. Maybe just psychological for me - not sure?

@tisme I have a small (SW) small wide nose pillow. The wide part made the difference for me. Maybe they are hard to get because instead of sending three (my allowance) they sent me a started kit with the three sizes. Even the provider store had none in stock.
Have you tried cutting the holes bigger yourself? Don't know why you couldn't.
Wishing you the best!
