Help Tried so many masks NONE WORK

[DudleyDoRight]

Been on the Bi-pap train now for over 6 months. Ive had only a dozen good nights sleep. Ive had better sleeps without the bipap. All the mask I've tried don't seem to work.

Masks Ive purchased and used:
FetLife Total face. They mean total face half your noggin in the mask – Leaks around temples

DreamWear half Full face nose pillow and mouth – Leaks around cheeks.

Airfit P10 Nose pillow sits inside– Leaks some times.  Does not feel like enough Air (I'm a mouth breather). Turned up pressure. Im in a large , use a chin strap. wake up really needing a lot of deep breaths and my lungs feel like a cold burn in the morning.  Use Sp02 sensor levels drop

Airfit F20 full face triangle mask– Leaks nose / cheek area.

Airlift F30 half Full face Nose pillow and mouth– Leaks at nose blows into eyes. I also wake up with my lower jaw out of my mask (looks like a bit and bridle) .

F&P Simplus full face mask- Blow outs and leaks at cheek and nose as well as corner of mouth.

I'm a mouth breather , and a floppy fish when sleeping. Tried all of these and the all leak in different ways and places.  Things are great as it legs into treatment. when the real pressure starts I get blow outs. I have the trifecta of apnea- Obstructive, Hypopnea , and  Central. My Sp02 drops below 89% on average 30% of my sleep even with treatment (though leaky) I don't drink , I don't do drugs, No Sleep aids working on loosing weight, but it seems this will be an ongoing issue.

I've read the Mask Primer here many times , have tried Light , medium and tight adjustments. tried many of the other suggestions there allowing the "seal" to do its job. etc.

Any suggestions? Any suggestions of different mask type or versions.  I've got every type I can think of.  I know masks are tough to suggest as everyone is different , but I've tried all the types.

Thanks in advance

My most recent mask success was with Fisher and Paykel. I've had the Simplus, Vitera full face, and the Evora Full, a hybrid full face lower and nasal cradle. It was decent at leak control and very comfortable. I'd have gotten it to perform better but my trial with ResMed AirCurve 11 VAuto failed to give the right therapy needed for complex Dave's needs.

I have three FFM's on hand. None of them seal 100% of the time. But......they do work most of the time. You may need to settle for one that works "most of the time". 

I'm only familiar with the ones I have. All are ResMed AirFit F20, F30, and F40. All three do a good job. I'm a side sleeper and cannot sleep on my back of stomach. 

My go to mask is the F30. It seals very well. But, as I toss and turn during the night, it will leak some. I'm aware of that and I simply readjust it. That takes a second of two. 

Anyways, hope that you find one that will suit you well. Let us know if that happens.

Resmed Quattro FX is the only mask i can use successfully. I've been around a long time and have tried many others over the years. The tighter i make it the better it works. Everybody gets odd leaks now and then. I have zero large leaks pretty much every night.
