Unusually high ahi readings

Lately I have been getting really high ahi readings. (12-13) and I dont know why. I was getting much lower (4-5)
I am using a resmed Airsense 10 Elite with a nasal mask.
Does anyone have any suggestions how this could be happening. I have been using cpap for nearly 2 years
Thank you
Debbie

still getting high leak readings

Using resmed 10 cpap. Things going ok. Big improvements to ahi by using a chin strap. However, on MyAirWeb I am still getting really high mask leakage readings. I have tried to make sure it is fitting well when I am using it and don't know what else to do. Any suggestions?
