I have been recently diagnosed with mild sleep apnea, I am still struggling with my mask which is the nose pillows. I use a chin strap to help keep my mouth closed, if this doesn't work then I have to switch to a full mask....My question is I was doing fine sleeping with my mask then suddenly I am having trouble sleeping with it, this happened before I had my air levels increased. Is this a common problem that happens why all of a sudden am I having difficulty sleeping with my mask.

I would appreciate any feedback on this.
