Some centrals are triggered by pressure, it seems from reading here that 10 is the pressure that starts to trigger more centrals. You would need to ask your sleep specialist why he thinks pressure changes aren't good. My MD has no problem with me reading my own charts and changing whatever needs changing to have effective treatment. He even uses some of my older charts to show new cpappers what you can do on your own if you get involved in your therapy!
Being that you get both obstructive and central apneas, you need to watch the balance between the 2. If the centrals go up sharply...try lowering the pressure. If the centrals stay low...go ahead and raise it. At least that's what I would do.
