Pat, Scott Thanks for the replies, until I found this site I was pretty clueless on some issues. The provider and insurence has been a struggle. Trying to get them to get the coverage and correct equipment etc. Going to look into a chin strap. I appreciate any advise. I know how important it is to use the cpap so I won't give up. Hoping it will get better. There have been some positive results, not having to get up to use the bathroom is a plus, able to fall to sleep a little better, but its the dry mouth and trying to fall back to sleep after that. Note I look at a lot of support sites and finally pulled the trigger on this one....glad I did!
Again thanks for the support!!! Jim
Hello I am new to this forum. I have been on CPAP therapy since November 2015. I am struggling with dry mouth as well. I use a full mask, heated tube and humidifier (set too highest) but some night my mouth is so dry I can even swallow. I have switch from a medium mask to a larger because I would wake up some nights and my mouth would slip out of the mask.
Between my provider and insurance it’s be a painful experience getting to this point.
I have almost quit using CPAP but I’m determined for it to work.
Glad I found this site!
Regards
