Follow-Up: marie, if the bridge of your nose was causing you discomfort you should be fitted with a spacer which attaches to the top of your mask just below where you strap your headgear on to your mask. this will relieve any discomfort due to pressure. it is easy to apply and can be done by your therapist. if you have continuing problems with the fit on your mask you can inquire about nasal pillows which attach directly to your nostrils. they are easy to set up and are quite common. this is a good option to look into. nasal pillows can be fit according to the size of your nostrils.
