I too have sleep apnea. I prefer the nasal pillow, which rests under your nostrils and you breathe normally. So lightweight and I hardly even know it is there.

Thanks for your response. Which Mask is that? I have recently ordered a Nasal Pillow Mask from ResMed AirFit P30i Nasal Pillow Mask. Let`s see if it helps.
