I am having a laminectomy and discectomy next month I already use a body pillow as I always sleep on my left side so I need pillow between my knees. But my back is still really sore so I don't sleep well. I am taking amitriptyline 50mg at bedtime it only helps a little. Sorry started rambling. Any way anyone use pregnancy pillow and do they help.
Thank Summi

AllMetal, can u recomend one brand or type over the other? They will cut up my spine in 3 places + sleep in a hard collar. Only side sleeping for a while. Do you have a favorite?
Thanks a lot!
Summi, I will let you know my experience after trying it, but just like me, you would like to find out if its an aid, before you have the surgery. Best of luck with your surgery!
