RE: My life has become living hell [nose blockage]
arc, have you tried a nasal pillows mask? The Resmed Airfit P10 has kept my nasal passages open without exception, including in allergy season, through colds and illness etc. Like you, I can't lay prone without complete blockage. Think about having a nice relaxing massage, but you can't breathe! I can actually lie in that position with the positive pressure through nasal pillows and stay open. I am often congested during the day, and the positive pressure at night is the relief. I have had some more severe congestion that actually blocked exhale flow, and I used Flonase to get through those periods.
