I think I find a "comfortable" place in my nest of pllows..and go to sleep intending to not move it..but I am not sure the arm relaxes... relaxing and letting gravity work is a challenge for me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

groupw Posted March 7 Share #6 Posted March 7 I slept in a recliner when I was in my sling for several weeks. One day I noticed my feet and legs were a bit puffy. I laid on my back on the bed and the swelling went down. I tried to sleep in the bed more after. I like to sleep on the broken side. Sleeping on my back or the other side took some adjustment. When I returned to work, the hardest part was getting my arm out the window to swipe my parking pass by the reader. That could be painful! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how I get in and out of my garage... Yup sleep is more challenging than pain control..after I slid off the leather sofa recliner (only place with left buttons after first surgery)..I opted for every damn pillow in the house nesting me into a V shape. I am using the adjustable part of my bed ..new this round! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
