I'm a respiratory therapist!!

I have been sleeping with the cpap for about 5 days now. At first I felt sooo good and now I am feeling better, but still a little tired. My machine is set on 9 and I have no complaints except that the seal that goes from pump to the humidifier was not tight (leaked air) and I had to replace it already. Can I use a little duct tape on the seal if it leaks again and I don't have an extra seal? I called the sleep clinic, but have not heard from them at all since sleep study last Friday night.

Air should not enter your stomach at all, if it does then your epiglotis.UVULA is not doing its job, by directing the air to your lungs in the first place. The pressure is to high,
