Trouble with DreamStation a AHI's too high - yarknit - 06-19-2017

I posted last week but can't find my posts. Sorry! I am still having trouble. Since increasing the pressure, the feeling of suffocation has improved slightly but still exhaling isn't as easy. I had great results with the PROne machine but this one is a nightmare. 
My pressure was at 12 and now at 14. I am using sleepyhead and have some screenshots.
Thanks for any help you can provide.

yarknit,
There is no record of a previous post from you. You may have just forgot to actually hit the
"post reply" button.

Anyway, Welcome to Apnea Board!

I am unable to access the image above. If you could follow the tutorials in my signature line and then use imgur to post a screenshot, then we can take a look and see what's going on.

Just insert a space in the beginning of the address.

In the meantime, if you are having problems exhaling, try using the AFlex feature and set it at 2. This will give you some exhale relief.
