RE: seems like I need to raise max pressure?
Seem a little more energetic today. Any problem that you see with pressure reaching max a good part of the night?
Should I keep everything the same for a while? Thanks for your advice.

RE: seems like I need to raise max pressure?
Just hold on to that for now. Your pressure will always increase to the maximum due to flow limitations, and may not result in improved therapy. If this is more comfortable, it seems to work well, and we can fine-tune later after we have a better idea how it settles in.

RE: seems like I need to raise max pressure?
Here is my data for the past 3 days. I seem to be increasing in number of RERA'S. I am waking up slightly better. a few times I did wake up due to the pressure being at the max pressure. Thanks for the advice.

That cluster on the 18th near the end of the night was positional. Other than that everything looks just perfect and I would not be concerned with the RERA flags for now. I assume you are more comfortable with the limited maximum pressure?

RE: seems like I need to raise max pressure?
I have been on a 10/13 epr 2 for past 9 days. I still feel I wake up when the pressure is at the max pressure setting. Feeling slightly better in the am but still feel sleep is disrupted.
Can you give me a recommendation if changing settings would help? I see that my 95% pressure is usually at the max of 13,probably from the flow limitations are there any way an increase in epr would help? Thanks for your time. https://i.imgur.com/rOclsHi.png https://i.imgur.com/RZeVwpE.png https://i.imgur.com/fNnlw4K.png https://i.imgur.com/9aFeTAF.png

From the data does it seem like I am spending to much of the night at the max pressure?
