RE: New user question
Hi I have been using nasal pillow mask and really like it. Was doing fine but now I need to get full face mask as am having to many episodes happening. Worked well for a couple of months so am surprised things changed and now not as well controlled. Wondering also where to start when trying to choose one. I am from Canada but winter in Florida. I am covered at home with insurance to get a mask. Thank goodness. Wish I could buy one in states as a lot cheaper here.

Look up your local DME in Florida and stop by. I would bet you could try on several mask and find what you want. If at first you do not succeed keep trying another DME.

If it is events without leaks, you don't need a mask change.
