Improvement after adjustments - still can't stay asleep

Improvement after adjustments - still can't stay asleep
Hi all,

I'm 2 months into CPAP and have made adjustments here and there. 

Thanks to a suggestion, I enabled EPR and saw a decrease in AHI - typically 1-3. I've also found that when I use a firmer pillow, it changes the position of my head, resulting is less obstructive apneas.

So treatment IS working but I cannot stay asleep no matter what happens. I wake up every 1-2 hours and it's preventing me from getting restful sleep.

Thoughts?
