i am using the comfort lie soft cups now because i like the headgear it doesn't leave marks on the face .the soft cups leak air constantly so i am trying to use the nasal pillows that came with the headgear , i am trying to adjust to them but i feel like i'm not getting air into my lungs and i'm suffocating . has anyone else had this problem ? and does it go away ?
