Kaye. I had the same problem for over 2 years. The doctors gave me all kinds of medicines. None of them worked. I had the clogged nostrils just about all the time. My problem is also a constant head like cold. The doctors gave up on me,but I kept on looking for some type of relief. Sleeping with the mask and having stuffed nostrils is no picnic. I know. I finally looked in the yellow pages of the phone book and picked out an ENT doctor that specialized in sinus infections. Thankfully I picked a good one. He dianosed me with a sinus infection and a deviated septhom. I went to the hospital as an outpatcent and had surgery to clean the sinus and correct the septhom. That was last August. I have never had such good clean nostrils before. I have not had anyproblems since. Now I am scheduled for another sleep study tonight to help clear up my head problem. The sleep doctor thinks that my headache and fuzzy head is attributed to sleep apnea attacks. Maybe a different setting on the pressure setting will clear everything up. You came to a good support group to gather information onsleep problems. I hope I provided you with some information that will be helpful. Best of luck.
