cpap masks

hi!  I'm boiling my resmed mask in water for 30sec and I think it really helps to clean it out, vinegar may also work
I've been taking d mannose hoping it will stop any brain damage I've gotten from sleep apnea
if anyone wants to talk about sleep apnea and treatments that would be great!
I really wish I had gotten surgery several years ago like UPPP because of what terrible things this disease has done to my life

I use the mirage quattro full face.  I heard that nasal pillows are good but some say that you can't use it with asv or higher pressures?  
feel free to message me!

I have an ASV and still can't sleep on it more than 1-2 hours a night- keep taking the mask off

I think the thinking problems are from sleep apnea and maybe brain damage.  don't you experience the same thing??
