Ive been watching your stuff for years, big thanks from Canada. Your content is so good and a great balance of technical detail and a distillation of the info!
It's never going to be a perfect seal. As long as it is not leaking going into your eye and severely impacting the sleep score move on with life. The fact that you are breathing properly through the night is what matters.
I have a deviated septum and was a mouth breather most of my life
until another cpap user recommended placing the tongue up on the roof of your mouth when going to sleep using the nasal pillows. He said it took a little practice but eventually it trained him to no longer breathe through his mouth. It was worth a try since I’m extremely claustrophobic. It didn’t even take me a week and I have used nasal pillows since. The humidity and hose warmth open up my nasal passages enabling me to breathe with no problem so I haven’t had to go through surgery as Dr Noah stated! Spot on!
Thanks so much I’ll give try today
Excellent! Please let us know if it worked out for you!
Much better
Ok, I'm using kinesiology tape and it works really well! The problem is trying to get it off in the morning without ripping my lips off!
Hello, have you looked into using mouth tape? that might be easier to get off in the mornings
My leaks are like face farts.
I’m new to CPAP. I’m a big guy with a big beard. Using the F40. Only way to ensure no leaks is to tighten the mask so much that my gums and teeth hurt in the morning. :(
Hello, you should not be tightening the mask so much that it is hurting you. You may need to change the style of mask you have to one that is more beard friendly, like the Dreamwear full face mask
Would placing it on full face effect while using a nasal mask or nasal pillows affect exhalation? I would worry about all the exhalation and making sure all the co2 was expelled before from the vent before inhaling again.
Hello, generally speaking, regardless of what mask or mask type is being used they have exhalation ports to help remove the exhaled breath-co2 so it should not affect exhalation
@@Sleeplayground so setting my cpap to fill face even though I have a nasal mask won’t negatively impact my therapy?
How’d ya know I need a hose lift mate?
