made it home

my body is in pain but i made it home any suggestions on how to sleep

Welcome to the loser's bench! I was able to sleep on my side with a pillow with no problem. Maybe try that or a recliner. I used my pain meds for a couple days at night to help with the pain but by Day 3 I didn't need them anymore. Each day you'll see remarkable improvement!

Thanks for the advice. I made through the night on the recliner.

 I was in the recliner for a few days and then tried the bed.  I needed tons of pillows to prop myself up...especially my belly.  I had my surgery open so I needed some extra support.  Take those meds...they will help you sleep :-)  

Stay ahead of the pain with your pain meds is the best thing you can do.
