Back sleeping

RE: Back sleeping
I would not tape with a FFM. The pressure is not lost if your mouth opens, but it can inflate your cheeks. Have you ever considered the soft cervical collar? It seems to work to help people keep their mouth closed due to gentle pressure on the back of the jaw, and it can keep your airway open, even when you're sleeping on your back.

Your results at 0.3 are exceptional.
