Help interpreting pressure with suggestions

Help interpreting pressure with suggestions
I have been using my Resmed machine for a while and still feel like I am not getting the most out of my machine. Some night I sleep fine but mostly I wake up with a stuffy nose. Would this have anything to do with my pressure settings? I would really appreciate any suggestions with adjusting my machine. I have attached a picture of my CPAP Statistics.

Thanks!

I would rather see a detailed daily chart for this than the statistics. Your AHI is low and if you're having problems with a stuffy nose, I would suggest using Flonase or maybe a change to your humidity settings. What are your humidity settings?

My humidity settings are on. I added my daily stats. Idk. I have tried using a netti pot before bed but I end up with water leaking from my nose every night...

A suggestion from another newbie (I'm still trying to figure out Oscar), try doing your nasal rinse at least an hour before bedtime - that should help with the drips.

When I asked what your humidity settings are, this was not the response I had in mind.
