Hi guys!
My girlfriend was recently diagnosed with sleep apnea. She got her CPAP two weeks ago, and finally has a comfortable mask, but she's really struggling to keep it on through the night as she has always been a side/tummy sleeper. I am hoping to find a CPAP support pillow for her that would allow her to sleep on her side without the mask being bumped off, as happens with a standard pillow. I have seen some high profile pillows, but I'm concerned about whether or not they will be appropriate for her. She weighs 400+ lbs (information I've been cleared to share) and so I want to make sure that I get one that will really work for her, and won't be another source of frustration on the journey to getting used to using a CPAP machine.
Any recommendations?
Thanks!
