I just wish I didn't hurt my husband's feelings when I choose to sleep with the recliner instead of him, LOL

am new to this website so here goes
i found you guys when i went on google and typed in seniors sleeping in recliners , i too am sleeping in a recliner and do not really know why i cannot sleep in a bed like normal people. i have arthritis in the knee and the only way i can get relief from the stiffness and pain of the knee is sleep in the recliner, but i was having problems sleeping before that , i can most nights get a decent nights sleep in the recliner but the problem is the recliner is in the living room and every time my husband comes in the living room if he wakes up in the middle of the night and comes in to get something to drink he wakes me up , am a light sleeper ,thought about getting a adjustable bed and put it in the spare bedroom but don't know if that would help. at least it would raise my legs and get me out of the living room. anyone try this ?
