hi steve. i use a v pillow. i was a side sleeper but i was advised try sleep slightly propped up. so i purchased an adjustable bed second hand and got a new mattress. i also got a fab air mattress topper via my OT this helps me greatly. i do take a muscle relaxant at bedtime which helps. like others i will say do a bit of research and try everything as sleep is very much needed.

There are special pillows out there as well. I'm getting a v shaped absorbing one custom made. I also use zopliclone sleeping pills to knock me out. Stay Strong. 👍😁😀🤗xx

In the context of major issues this may seem trivial but I find it very difficult to sleep at night.

On the contrary Steve, good quality sleep is very important to us all!

I always say to start with your mattress - have you an OT or nurse who can assess you? xx

Hello

I have been diagnosed with probable MND.

In the context of major issues this may seem trivial but I find it very difficult to sleep at night. I sleep on my side and my neck and shoulder ache and are very uncomfortable. We tried various Pillow combinations without success.



Any ideas or solutions

Thanks

Steve
