I was just looking to bring this thread to the top, to ask if anyone had given face grease a try.
Good news, Melissa! I still haven't washed my cushion, and continue to have terrific leak line with consistent AHI around 1.5....which is the best AHI I have been able to achieve with a FFM.
DeVilbiss IntelliPap Std Plus with Smartflex; Transcend miniCPAP & Everest2 w/humidifier & batt for travel. UltraMirage FFM; PadACheeks; PaPillow. Using straight CPAP at 13.0/passover humidifier. AHI consistently < 1.5. Began CPAP 9/4/08.

My leak was terrific, but my AHI was still too high....sigh. However, I must say that it was lower than it has been the past couple of nights. My DME is going to be switching me to auto in the next few days, though....so maybe that will help with my AHI. In the meantime, I am going to keep up with the face grease seal!!
