Mask Fit?

Mask Fit?
Hi. I just received a Large size Amara View. I've been using a Medium ever since I began cpap (6 weeks ago). Haven't used it to sleep yet, but it feels good so far.
Just wondering why neither my sleep doc nor the company ever really "measured" me with that thing used to measure you. Were you all measured?

RE: Mask Fit?
I don't recall my DME rep doing that, but the mask fit seems OK to me, other than it being time for a replacement. I suspect that after a while, the person gets good at eye-balling it, just the way a butcher can eyeball a specific amount of meat after a while.
                                                                                                                          
Note: I'm an epidemiologist, not a medical provider.

RE: Mask Fit?
I think I was measured at my titration, which was my second sleep study, I didn't get to sleep in time at my first one, so I had to go back for the titration. Anyway, when the lady from the DME came out to set up my machine, she measured me as well.
