Actually the mark on my cheek was from the strap not the hose. I tried the Resmed Mirage Swift 11 last night. It was the most comfortable one yet, but it leaked more than a little and I was constantly trying to re-adjust. Tightening doesn't help, it's just the nature of the design. It was worse when I slept on my side so I spent the night on my back. I really think that these masks should be custom made for people who don't fit the usual profile, although it will probably never happen. Nevertheless the quality of the sleep that I got was so much better. I am determined to make it work as I feel that I have been tired most of my adult life.
