Post What can I do to assist my fiance to acclimate to his CPAP? 
Hello Everyone,

As some of you have read in my other posts in this section my fiance has OSA and we finally got his CPAP a few days ago. He is being such a trooper and trying to get used to it. I know this will take time. Is there anything I can do to help him acclimate? He has a Resmed Elite II and a mask just covering his nose. He is having trouble getting used to keeping his mouth closed and says he feels a bit suffocated. Anything I (or we) can do to help him adjust?

Thanks a bunch Very Happy

It's been a while since your post. How's he doing? Usually takes a couple weeks to get used to things.
