Sleep apnea

fordguy74

Hi everyone! I'll make this short and sweet. I developed sleep apnea as i gained weight, i have been using a cpap when i sleep. My big problem now is that i need a new mask. I have been using the kind that just covers my nose,but my wife is complaining that when i lay on my back my mouth comes open and out comes the air! So i need a mask that covers my nose and mouth. So if anyone out there uses a c pap and that kind of mask your input on what kind of mask i should get would be great. thanks you.

If you like the mask you have, just buy a chin strap. I ordered one from cpap.com for $20 and it solved my problem. I think my former double/triple chin used to keep my mouth propped shut. LOL
