Advice & Tips
I can NOT use the full face mask and was offered the nose attachment and that works quite well, I've adjusted all the straps so that it angles correctly and I really don't notice the sound if I get it on just right. I sleep much sounder and feel somewhat better but I still have the severe Fybro and CFS. That just doesn't want to go away. Mine is terrible in my hips and shoulders! I've had severe problems with balance and my GP has ordered me to use a cane and a perm Handicapped tag. Some people even in my own household think I'm still faking this! Unbelievable! I've wished it all on them, maybe mine will go away!
