Incraese pressure a bit?
Attached chart. Based on the few times my pressure seems to increase to 12 (that's the top setting presently), does this suggest I should up my upper limit to maybe 13? I think that was what it was originally set at when I first went on therapy but I was getting leaks so dialed it down one notch.

Please post the full chart for that night. Hard to tell what is causing it and make recommendations without seeing the big picture.

We don't need to see 17 graphs.

Almost. The left panel contains useful info as well. Minus the calendar please.
Albeit not seeing numbers, there's some flow limits that can be problematic, along with the occasional OA, H. How do you feel after that session?

No I don’t think you need a higher max pressure. You have lflow limits that caused your higher pressure and at 0.0 time on the chart you had a brief amount of positional apnea. No pressure can clear Potential apnea you have to find a way to stay out of the position. Sleeping on your back can be a reason.
You could raise the min pressure to help with the flow limits.
