Pillow Talk

@Summerhill38, I too have terrible problems with my hips and knees. All my joints actually, due to a preexisting autoimmune condition which attacks all the  connective tissue in my body. Chemo and Femara haven't helped one little bit. Just to add to the mix, I now also have  adhesive capsilitis (frozen shoulder)  on the right side. Excruciatingly painful if the shoulder moves one centimetre out of semi comfortable alignment. I have roped my bagel shaped pillow from my breast  nurse (for the Big Chop) and have found that placing it between my knees when sleeping on my side has been most helpful. Initially started doing this to make my upper facing thigh, level with my arm on the right side to stop slippage at night. I've found that the added bonus is a decrease in hip and knee pain as the  upper thigh  is not twisting my torso sideways as the upper knee goes downwards to rest on the bed. Might be worth a try. When it gets a bit manky, i just squeeze it under running water with a bit of shampoo. As it is small and filled with polyfiller (used in kids' toys), it washes and dries very quickly and easily.
