Adams Nasal Pillows

Posted by MDM on March 09, 2006 at 12:58:37:

I've tried and had trouble with the Profile Lite and Activa masks. I haven't been able to get used to having them on my face and I don't think the mask-type apparatus is for me.

I've tried the Nasal Air, it was better but I couldn't get it to stay in my nose. It'd start OK but after movement or just from the pressure itself one nostril or the other always seemed to pull out or leak.

The Adams Circuit nasal pillows was recommended. I'm a side sleeper and use a foam "neck shaper" pillow for neck problems.
I'd like to hear experiences with this device, especially side sleepers who move from side to side periodicaly during the night?

Also, for nasal pillows in general, can you minimze any soreness or redness with regular use of ointments?
