High number of events during periods of high flow limit.

High number of events during periods of high flow limit.
Hello all! Hope your Friday's are going well. I've been using the therapy for about two weeks at this point. Loving it and trying to get everything dialed in. Looking through OSCAR results every day and making little tweaks have been a lot of fun but I am coming across and issue I am unsure of how to address. 

Over the past 3-4 nights I will have these 10-20 minute periods where I have an uptick in events. They seem to be accompanied by high levels of Flow Limit. Any thoughts on what I should look at?

RE: High number of events during periods of high flow limit.
Your pressure is too low. I would suggest Min/Max= 13/16 cm.
Also, make sure that you do not have positional apnea. Use a soft collar and a thin pillow. Slide sleeping is the best.
