The boxer short pockets didn't work because I ended up closer to hyper-extension and woke up in even more pain. I took your advice and use a down pillow tucked with my arm at a 120-135 degree angle and the elbow pain is greatly reduced now. Icing between the clavical and axilla has also helped as I believe I still have a lot of post surgical inflammation. Icing the elbow doesn't really help me.
