I have a pump under the head of my mattress that I can use on choking days. it can be pumped up a little or to the full sitting position. it was a cheap easy alternative to buying an adjustable bed, and Amazon.com carries them. LOVE mine! I can sit up to watch TV and lay half way down or go flat if I want.

I just cant get comfy enough to sleep in a chair unless I am completely exhausted. I dont rest well, and I dont recover enough energy unless I can stretch out.
