Hi Lawrence--I understood your problem and wasn't referring to leakage, only outlining the variety of problems that assail us on the "machines from Hell". My allergy problems are nowhere as severe as yours; by comparison, mild, but I did have a lot of trouble with the sneezing, bloody nose,and soreness. My exposure to animal dander is more limited, only cat and dog stuff when we care for the "granddog & cat" at our house when the kids vacation. I did take a lot of antihistamines and decongestants in the beginning and could have never lasted without the heated humidifier. I experimented until I turned it back just enough to prevent rain out (most of the time.) I sincerely hope you are able to hang in there and improve things with the full face mask, etc. Again, God bless.
