1 year and something is still wrong (please advise)

1 year and something is still wrong (please advise)
Hello,

Been using Airsense 11 for a year now, had 32 AHI during sleep study. Now at 3-4 but still feeling incredibly tired and the doctor has no clue...

I've posted my last 3 nights, not sure what I should be looking for, but I would greatly appreciate it if someone could help me. 

Thank you so much

Seems with your pressure settings you are nearly in CPAP mode. Your min is 12 yet you spend 95% of your time at 13. Have you tried EPR at all? Now, I'm new to this. So don't take my word as gospel.

Yes I started with EPR on but I think it made me stop breathing more. If I remember correctly I had more centrals with it on.

95% of pressure is 13, meaning I should put the minimum pressure at 13 correct ?

95% of pressure is 13, meaning 95% of the time you are below this pressure. Don't make the minimum that pressure, too much of a change. But increase it a bit.
Can you show the machine settings, might be helpful to the experienced people here.
You have consistent leaks, not large, but they might effect your therapy.
Also do you use a soft cervical collar, do you sleep on your side?
Did you have CAs on your sleep study?
What mask do you use, still the Evora full face mask

It would help if you set your minimum pressure at 12 or 12.4, as that is your median pressure.
