MDJunction to me

scotty04901"MDJ to me is an added phase in my recovery as a 44 year survivor of a TBI. I hope that with what I have lived through in those years, will be able to help all those who are just now going through. It is important to understand that even after 44 yrs, I am continuing to recover and to evolve. I just hope I can help others." (scotty04901)

Hello Sleep Disorder group. I have sleep apnea. Was diagnosed last year with moderate sleep apnea. Just started using the CPAP this year. It did great at first but then I started breathing out my mouth while using the nose mask lol I have a small head and face so masks tend to be too big for me. The petite nose mask was working but I started breathing through my mouth as I said haha I am currently using a liberty mirage I believe its called and the small is too big n they dont make a smaller size :/ My tube from my CPAP to my mask has a crack in it and cant get it replaced until January Sad Any suggestions on what I might be able to use to seal it that is safe to breathe in and easy to take off so I can clean it weekly?
