[Equipment] Help me figure out Resmed P10 problem
#1
Help me figure out Resmed P10 problem
I avoided cpap for sooooo many years and I'm now 5 nights in with the air sense 11 and a p10 nasal pillows mask.  And here's the deal:  it's basically going to work out, I think, except for one weird problem I need help with.  The seal is fine - the my air app says no seal issues (using size m).  
Here's my problem:

I am right-handed and a dedicated right-sided sleeper.  I have a really hard time sleeping on the other side and CANNOT sleep on my back.  The buckle is digging into my skull - even when i smushed the pillow over as far as possible and that spot on my head hurts hours later.  I looked and don't think I can change the orientation (if the buckle was on the left side, problem solved).  

Ideas? Anyone else ever have this problem??? Any hacks? 

Many thanks.

Look at Supplier #31 (padacheek).

You can find a small Velcro Wrap that wraps around the P10 head gear.

You can change which side of the mask the buckle is on. Just take it off and swap sides.
