Nice images, how do you feel?
Assuming your numbers [particular leak] consistently remain in that range, you can either continue with apap [reduce range 8-12] or straight cpap [as rested gal correctly 'guessed' @ 10].

Congrats and hope therapy continues like last night

Nice graphs! If you continue to have leaks problems I would follow the suggestions by RestedGal (next to the Cardinal bird) about sticking to CPAP mode and the pressures, and trying other masks such as:
