Body pillow was too big for me to use ( I am 5 ft tall). I exchanged it for a king sized down pillow and used it last night with some success in sleeping on my right side. My new program is to fall asleep naturally (after taking melatonin 3mg) but no pain pill, falling asleep on my back. I usually awake at 3-4 am, take a pain pill and then roll to my right side with my new pillow. I slept until 6 am two days in a row this way. I do wake with some chest pain. I think it is the "crush" of the shoulders together when you sleep on your side. It bothers the lead over the sternum. The pain resolves quickly but you should stretch out on your back to help it along.
Sinus headache this morning.....tylenol for sinus headache doing nothing.......will have to resort to Imitrex I think.......
Planned walk in the park on this lovely day with one of my oldest friends, Marge. Should be lovely.
And there is a nap in my future......soon
