From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

I just got a wedge pillow for sleeping and I think it helps a bit. If you have severe apnea it won’t be enough but maybe worth trying while you wait for a sleep study?

Products generally aren't allowed to be discussed by low karma users like op as they are indistinguishable from bots or product shills. And we have alot of those behind the scenes. Its fine since you asked for it

For me I needed to be able to bend my knees and at my hips (because that's how I slept for like 25 years on my side), and have my lower back feel supported, so I stuck a normal pillow under my knees for support there and bought a raised pillow like this, and used my normal pillow on the top edge of that. I found that comfortable and sustainable for me with practice (probably helped to start the habit of making sure I'm really physically tired when going to bed for the first couple weeks or so). My rule was my shoulders need to be basically parallel/flat to the wedge pillow, but I can still sort of twist or change 'sides' or do whatever with the rest of my body.

Good luck! I thought it would be impossible for me when I first tried it but the extra pillows made it and now that's just my normal, comfortable way of sleeping. I think sleeping on my back feels best for my face, chest, and upper back, although side (I'll still lay on my side sometimes, just not allowed to sleep on it) can be nicer if I have a full stomach or cramps or something.

My PT recommended this one for me post-injury, since it doesn’t cause your knee to bend. Not sure if I’ll use it post-op though.

I am only wearing a compression garment and not foam or a binder. Wondering if I will need those too? I’m 43 and have had a kid so my skin is definitely a bit more elastic than it once was! 😂 I will ask my doc when I see him this week. This is the wedge pillow I got. Nothing fancy but I definitely prefer sleeping with it than without it. I had a good day yesterday and thought I was ready to try sleeping without it and woke up super sore and put it back on the bed. Haha There’s something about the slight incline that seems to help with the soreness and it’s also firmer than my bed’s mattress so maybe that helps.

The only suggestion I can really think of is getting a wedge pillow. They can get kind of expensive, but personally a $40 pillow that might help with acid reflux might be worth it.

The pillow elevates the top half of your body so the acid doesn't creep up your throat.

In terms of laying down try getting a wedge pillow

and another one to elevate your feet. Great for alleviating lower back pain.

Thank you! something like this?

Well, we love her but also especially during these crazy times when we likely can't be there in person as much. Thanks again

I bought one from Amazon for maybe $40 and it works great…you absolutely do NOT have to spend $100-$200!!! Here is an example:

I purchased the following wedge pillow and case in January 2021 and it helps. I use it every night and it is just as firm as the day it arrived.

I got this one but any will do
