results seem ok but don't feel any better

results seem ok but don't feel any better
    Hi,
I'm once again appealing to your collective expertise. I'm using the machine regularly and the AHI is consistently low. I can't seem to sleep for very long with the full mask on, however, and so I'm always tired. Overall, I wouldn't say that I feel much better than before I began all of this. Is there anything that jumps out to all you knowledgeable people that might be a problem?
Best,
Jeff

RE: results seem ok but don't feel any better
I switched from DS and min pressure 8.5 to Resmed on min pressure 7.0.
In both cases Ahi was 0.6 but on DS I felt more rested.

What I’m doing now is checking higher min pressure. I just bumped it to 8.0 and after few nights I feel better. I may get it up to 8.4 to be as close to DS settings as possible.

No idea if it may help you but I think it’s worth checking.
Relaying exclusively on AHI won’t bring good results IMO.
