If not, get refitted for a more correct mask.

I'm giving it plenty of chance, I think. I'm not complaining about it, just looking for advice. It seems to be fine when I go to sleep, but it takes some maneuvering to get the seal just right. And at some point every night, something goes wonky and it wakes me up because it's lost that seal and starts making all kinds of noise and blowing all over my face. Then there's the 3 a.m. wake up every night when I can't get back to sleep unless I take it off. And please believe me, I've tried and tried. Now when I wake up, I just take it off. My pulmonary doc doesn't think it's a problem (and neither do I, really), I just would prefer to not have to do that.
