My husband has been having problems using the full face mask it hurts the bridge of his nose. We've tried everything, gauze, gel window cling taped down, still pressure that hurts him. He refuses the nose pillows and nose mask. We are waiting on a different mask but it's too soon for delivery. So now he won't use bi pap at all tonight. He had me plug in his diaphragm pacemaker instead and sit the hospital bed all the way upright. I lay listening to his breathing so irregular and not sounding good. What do I do? I don't want to wake him but am afraid he may not wake up? What should I listen for or do? I'm calling the MD office tomorrow to ask if they can send the diff mask even if I have to pay for it. He has advanced Als at this point. FVC in 30's.
