I may be wrong, but I know I'm right. :idea: Because I am the foremost authority on ALL things comet. Probably know more than anyone ever...about comets. And lots of oth...

Re: Sleep study inaccurate

First I don't understand why y'all are making such a fuss about honesty. That is the attitude pointing out why you are what you are. And why the responsible people on here have to watch what you say, so honesty/truth will prevail. You are like a snotty, out of control, self absorbed, know it all fi...

Another example of you being tedious, adding nothing of value, and then dragging the topic off-topic. You then start posting about getting back on-topic. Exactly. Just another example of it's P/A technique of derailing threads. Laying it's down crap, thus forcing someone to correct said crap. Then ...

Is the Wide "larger" then the Medium?
The mask cushion on the wide and the medium is the same. The wide refers to the width of the nose cradle.

A cervical collar will keep the chin up and mask out of one's mouth.

Good luck.

Wow! :lol: :lol: :lol: Absolutely worth a laugh. :lol: But it worked!!! Stayed on all night. Much more comfortable than tape. You can cup your hand (all fingers).

Re: Please Help! Chipmunk cheeks waking me up despite taping mouth shut

ould it be possible/easy for you to send me a link (like, from Amazon) of the kind of elastic band you're talking about? I might want to order some. I checked on amazon and they no longer have the type I use. But I did find this: https://www.amazon.com/s?k=2+elastic+bandage+with+velcro&crid=1M3HU34...

Re: Please Help! Chipmunk cheeks waking me up despite taping mouth shut

Yes! In addition to the head band I bought a roll of 2" elastic band and made an additional band to go over the head band. I cut it so it would overlap itself and then added 2" adhesive velcro to the ends so I could adjust the tightness of the bands. The adhesive eventually wore out and I started s...
