Mask Leakage

Posted by mdmatty on February 08, 2007 at 16:02:35:

Hi,

I'm newly dx w/ OSA and am struggling w/ getting a mask that is comfortable but doesn't leak. I've come to understand that we need to be creative to get the equipment to meet our individual needs. I now have the comfort curve mask that is extremely comfortable. However, I am having significant leakage from the sides of the "curve". I have a full face mask that has a great seal but is not comfortable. Does anyone have any suggestions. Thanks

Matt
