Oh, yes, please do report on your experience with braces! I have thought about trying one, but like 4-eyes says, I was afraid it would just end up straining some other weak muscle.

I bought a zero-gravity recliner to bring to places like my son's Little League games. It's really heavy, unfortunately, but the tilt is perfect for resting my neck. I do a lot of work on the computer, and I have found a way to slump back so that the back of my head rests on the top of the back of the chair (and my feet are up on a stool). But when I'm having a weak spell, I find it really hard to sit for long in a straight chair.
