RE: Full Face Masks vs. Nasal masks
Check into an Amara View mask - nasal pillow and fits over the mouth - much easier to wear than a typical full face mask.

I have more hassles with some masks than others and some nights, I just pull off my mask and HAVE to move on to another mask, leaks or not, because the original mask was causing some kind of problem that I'm too tired to figure out. So long as most of the night isn't high leaks, I call it treated. I do understand though - I used a Full Face mask for the first time last winter because of severe nasal congestion. It was a PITA. It will get better when I get rid of this hard mattress. I'll be able to go back to sleeping on my back. I will never again believe anybody who says a firm mattress is the only way to go - it has caused me lots of back and neck problems I never had with a soft mattress or even a waterbed mattress.
Try a 4" memory foam overlay(even over a used mattress).. Sleep on my back and can not be without it.
