Ok everyone I just got cleared from my Dr. to sleep on my non op leg ( right side) with pillows to prevent mid line crossing, is there any other advice you guys can offer up? My wife is going to sleep real close to me to prevent over 90° bend (toward my stomach) ANY AND ALL ADVICE IS WELCOME AND ENCOURAGED!!!
