Has anyone using a bipap machine still get headaches

I was diagnosed with having sleep apnea in May of this year. my Pulmonolgist ordered a bipap machine for me with a hudmidfier. I have had a lot of trouble using it. I started to notice that while I was using the machine I was still getting the headaches I would get before I was diagnosed. When I spoke to my pulmonolgist, she was angry that I was not using the machine. When I explained I was still getting headaches, her response was, "you were getting headaches before you were on the bipap, what is the difference." She told me that I should take tylenol before going to sleep. I tried it this week and it didn't work.I'm wondering if my settings are set too high. I am so ready to go see another pulmologist b/c I am getting so frustrated. I don't want to have any problems before I have sugery.
