Re: Best pillow for side sleepers
I tried several "recommended" pillows and found that "My Pillow" works best for me, the ds don't lie, it works quite well.

I don't use a standard pillow with my FFM at all because it doesn't work for me. The EnduriMed with the custom wedges for the mask works really well for me because it both supports my head well and gives the mask bottom a space to go into.palerider wrote: ↑Sat Mar 02, 2019 2:43 pmGet close enough to the edge that the less thick part of the pillow isn't pushing too much on the mask, you want less support on the mask, in front of your face than you want on your head.PaulKTF wrote: ↑Sat Mar 02, 2019 1:07 pmWell I might be a fathead.ChicagoGranny wrote: ↑Sat Mar 02, 2019 11:27 amWell, Paul, I don't think you are a fathead, so maybe you are not using a regular pillow that is thick or firm enough on the edges?But you are also probably right that the pillow is not as thick on the edge as it is in the center.
Might need a different pillow.

That's interesting. I've seen people post in the forum that My Pillow is a ripoff.djensen9367 wrote: ↑Sun Mar 03, 2019 10:58 amI tried several "recommended" pillows and found that "My Pillow" works best for me, the ds don't lie, it works quite well.

I noticed that My Pillow was in the news lately and cops were called to a cardboard cutout. So much attention to a cardboard cutout all over the internet.

The Jordan Police Department received a call saying a man was standing motionless outside in the cold. Reportedly, the man was not wearing a coat and was hugging a pillow. The caller may have thought they were witnessing a "deranged person," the department said on Facebook.
When police responded, they found the large cardboard cutout of Lindell.

I use https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00NERG2O4/
I am always sleeping on one side or the other, never on my back or face. My CPAP interface is "nasal pillows".
I love my pillow, and usually travel with it, despite its weight and bulk. It is very "tunable", in that you can stuff the bag fuller or less so.
