"You must figure out a good sleep posture…..did you use a wedge?"
@artscaping -

I thought I would have trouble with position because I am a side sleeper with a very flat pillow preference, I don't even need one. I didn't think I wanted to spend a night in our recliner because it does not lay back flat enough for me. Luckily I had a bed wedge that my husband declined to use from a couple of years ago. With one pillow on that, I can sleep ok mostly on my left side. I am not normally a back sleeper, so have to find a fairly small arc of comfort from not quite on my stomach to not quite on my back. I wake up every one to three hours, but that is normal for me, and I usually fall asleep again within 10 minutes. I usually put the ice pack on my shoulder when I go to bed , it thaws and falls off in about the right amount of time, and I put it back in the freezer first time I get up to use the bathroom during the night.
