lip flap

Posted by marffin on October 19, 2001 at 06:22:41:
I have been trying to get use to using the cpap for the last few months, the problems are the mask leaking and other problems. I have found out that cleaning the mask every day does help and am checking with the dr. about using a nasal pillow as I have a beard, but I have found out that if I try to use the cpap all night that about after 6 or 7 hours that air will build up in my mouth and cause my cheeks will to bubble and wake me up! Is this because of the cpap ramping up the last few hours? I am trying to get a hold of my dr. to find out, but wanted to know if someone is also having this problem.
