[Treatment] Mouth fills with air, wakes me
#1
Gross 
Mouth fills with air, wakes me
I have had my machine for one night. Nose pillow. Everything is set up, I think correctly. Prescribed pressure 5-11.  It seems my tongue blocks the air from going into my mouth, okay, feels good, but then the tongue falls forward a tiny bit and my mouth fills with air, and explodes through my lips.  Needless to say, I cannot sleep.  Someone described this as like a dog with his head out the window, filling his mouth with air.  But I have not seen any solution for this.  Why would a new type of mask help?  I would still have the tongue problem.  I will try a chin strap, maybe that will help.
