My nostrils got really chafed using those "pillows" several years back.
Has their design improved?
I was fitted for the small/medium sized pillows a couple of years ago.
It was a Fisher-Paykel model with minimal head straps that I'd dislodge
rolling around in my sleep, and the nasal openings were small enough to
feel like it was restricting airflow, so I gave up on them after a

I was 45 in my sleep study.
What was her minimum oxygen level in the sleep study, does she need
treatment to get her pulse ox up?
A pulse oximeter that remembers a night's readings is handy.
It looks like the recording oximeters are bluetooth now, and your cell
phone does the recording.
But it might be difficult to run an app on a smartphone if you're both
blind.
