    Brenda,

    I saw your post. Are you sure that it's your mask that's the problem, or is it the feeling of the air itself/pressure? Have you heard of ASV machines that treat central apnea?

    ok, great. there's lots of good info here on the ASV machine; also you might check out any posts by White Beard a member of SleepGuide. He has central apnea and has changed his life with the ASV machine.
