Hi all,

I have needed to return to cpap despite my best efforts to get off of it and I'm having the same issues I had before. Namely, I wake up 4-5 times/night and the mask has either fallen off or I have ripped it off in my sleep. The chin strap is also problematic--I feel like it traps heat and keeps me too warm.

I have tried several masks throughout my experience with cpap, both masks and "in the nose" style.

If anybody has any suggestions, I would be grateful.

Thanks.
