Actually, sleeping on your side is better for sleep apnea than sleeping on your back - even with CPAP

Can you tell me a bit more about this? When I roll on my side, I feel comfortable, until I roll past the side point and the cpap gets crushed between my face and the pillow, lol

I like to sleep that way too. What has helped me is to sleep on a thick memory foam pillow with the CPAP equipment hanging off the end (if that makes sense). This was with a nasal mask, so I don’t know if it will help you. There’s an extremely helpful discussion board found at CpapTalk.com. Best of luck!
