More help needed [with pressure adjustments] - Easylistener - 03-14-2019

OK so I have been playing with my pressures with some advice from you all and have been really struggling the last couple nights.  I hope you guys can give me some more help...so my AHI has come down a little but I can't use the machine for more then like 4 hours....Last two nights have been awful and think there is something more going on and hope you guys can point me in the right direction.  I had been using the machine up to 8-10 hours before the last couple nights....

The last couple nights I have been waking up starving for air....I have to rip my mask off to get some air and it seems like at times when I wake up I am just not doing well...I have been using the F20 as I am waiting for some other options to come and thats the same mask I have used this whole time except for a couple nights thrown in there....I don't know if I am rebreathing air, but I can feel air come out of the vent on the F20....There never is much coming out of that vent...What do you guys think?  I also have been getting several periodic breathing warnings in sleepy head but isn't the machine suppose to help with this?

Charts below...

Can you post the flow limitation and snore graph?

This is a PR machine it has Flow Limit Events, (FL), and no Flow Limitation graphs.
