pressure could've gone to 19 but maxed at 14.2 so hard to figure reducing pressure was the reason. otoh, epap reduced to a max of 11.2 might explain some of the oa (but I lean toward probably not, considering your results at various settings). you could try raising that a bit by bumping min to 13 or reducing epr to 2 again.

personally, when I feel things coming apart, I go back to basics. I'd re-titrate myself with a single fixed pressure. once you find the setting that best treats your oa, you can reintroduce epr & then maybe a range between min & max. meanwhile, keep looking for a vauto or asv. maybe vauto's timing controls will help stabilize your breathing.

leaks were great for the first 3 hours & a 40 minute stretch after 4am. otherwise, your mask gave you problems the rest of the night. if you can figure out why the difference, you might be home free. any insight from video?

could be something else entirely going on, not pap related, but finding a good mask is obviously pivotal.

sleep labs routinely try out a number of masks on people in for titration. i wonder if you or you doc could persuade one to let you take your machine in between titration patients to let you run through their mask inventory. or maybe a dme provider would let you try their masks with your your machine in their facility.

I have mixed feelings about suggesting this but maybe you should take your charts & list of complaints to your doctor. or a reputable sleep doc. the trick will be to be persistent & not let them off the hook. insist on monthly appointments, for example, until problems are clearly resolved.

I hope others have ideas because I'm fresh out.
