I haven't heard of a custom mask. I live in the mountains, can you give me a head start of where to look for one? I am currently using nasal pillows, a chin strap and an ace bandage over my mouth, but still have 7 to 12 apneas per hour, and I don' t know how many hypnopeas. I've tried three full face masks and the seal breaks within one to two hours and then I can't seem to get it to seal at all. thanks for the advice.
