Suggestions for a better pillow?

This might be an odd question, but I am very pillow conscious. For years I had to sleep with two pillows to hold my head very high. When I got my CPap I also got some kind of T shaped pillow which is a total waste. Now I have something with memory foam which is also not ideal. Anybody using a really...
