Prior to my esoph surgery we replaced our bed with a split king adjustable from Amazon and two twin xl memory foam mattresses. I think it was a round $1400 total and I don't know if that seems affordable for you but I think it was reasonable. The sleeping adjustment I had to make wasn't so much getting used to the head of the bed being raised since I'm a professional at napping in a recliner, it was getting comfortable raising my legs as well so I stopped sliding down the bed at night!

The most functional special bed platform for stomach and side sleepers is a platform structure so that the head is about 6" to 8" higher than the foot of the structure. I've always made my own for various bed sizes. The materials needed for a queen bed frame would be 3 each 2" x 8" x 8' of construction lumber, 1 each 4' x 8' x 1/2" plywood board for the top and I use low-end indoor/outdoor carpet to upholster the top and sides. The total cost will be about $150.00. If you want to do a project like this and save a lot of money I can do a rough drawing for you. Let me know.
