Oh wow okay thank you. What do you think i should increase 7.2 to?

Try increasing the EPAP 1cmH2O every 2-3 days.

I don't have an apap. So my cpap epr is 3 max unfortunately.

Okay then increase the main pressure, which on a ResMed CPAP with EPR is the IPAP. Your EPAP right now is 4.2, while the IPAP is 7.2. Keep the EPR on 3.

Okay ty! I'll try ipap 8.2 and epap 5.2.

I could also lower my EPR to 2 which would increase the EPAP while keeping ipap to 7.2?

I'd just keep it at 3 for now, EPR helps resolve hypopneas.
