Well, I had a scary moment today, thought they were going to take my CPAP machine away
apparently, its not helping enough, its on max pressure, and I'm still having apnea way too often.
But the problem was my sleep study apparently wouldn't qualify me for the more powerful Bipap machine, so I could have been stuck.
But for now they are giving me the nose mask instead of the full mask in the hops it will not leak as much, and they're having me come back in 2 weeks to see how that goes

Hopefully they'll find something that will work for you, it can take time sometimes.

Don't take me too seriously. I'm just kitten around. :3
Which Mask?
After trying out many masks I ended up with the ResMed Ultra Mirage nasal mask. Most comfortable for me with no leaks. There are different size cushions for multiple nose/face shapes. I need a large (deep) to make room for my nose.

I've been trying to get in to
I've been trying to get in to get a new machine. Mines getting pretty old now, and I hear it straining sometimes. But, with a certain virus, it's been slow to get an appointment. Hopefully, I'll be able to get in soon. The strap on my mask broke, and I've fixed it with elastic for now.
Hugs, Dot!
