cannot get comfortable with the mask/tubing.
That's what I'm worried about. I toss and turn at night. I start off lying on my back but I'm mist comfortable sleeping on my stomach.

That is why I use Provent. Requires a prescription, paid 360.00 for 180 day supply. It regulates the flow of air which keeps one's throat open while asleep

There are many different types of masks. Go to a medical supply store that sells them and tell them what your issue is. You aren't the first one to feel this way (raises hand). Odds are they have one that will work for you. For the most part though, you just have to make up your mind that this is good for you.

The reason you maybe tossing and turning is you are not breathing
I have been using one for about 7 years I started with a mask that covered my nose and mouth now I have one that just fits on my nostrils
It took sometime to get used to i can sleep on my side and back. It has helped I get a minimum of 6 hours of good sleep
The biggest issue is sometimes my mask leaks and air will blow into my eyes while sleeping and cause my eyes to get dry and irritated
