Good old pillows,i need 3, 1 for my head,a big plump one to hang on to,and a 3rd that moves around with me through the night ,if pillows could talk i dont think they would have very pleasant things to say about me, yet another restless,painful night ,you think i would be use to it by now,iam losing the plot, poor old pillows get ready for another night.Best wishes to you all xx

Omg, you poor thing! It's murder when your in so much pain and can't seem to get comfortable even with the use of sleeping aids!

How long have you been using the pillows? :) xx

Ihave been using the pillows about 2 years,the only time i can get any sleep,is by taking Amitriptyline but i find they put weight on, and i also have high liver readings, so i only take them when iam desperate for sleep , xx

Thank you, as i have said before its the lack of sleep that gets to me most,but having to take certain medication often comes at a price so feels like you cant win,i try to stay positive but fine it very hard to do at times.
