Pillow
 
Can anyone recommend a pillow for Thoracic Output Syndrome?

I can recommend a heating pad that is great. It gets really hot, but you can control the temperature. I love how hot it gets.

I have a really old pillow that's very thin. It works great for me. Any of the newer stuff I don't like. They're all too thick and puffy and I always wake up in pain.

Can you describe the pillow fill? Is it a kind of foam pillow , is it dense or light?
Any additional info might help. Please share. I did go to the website but couldn't figure what material it is made with.
I need to travel with my pillow. Thanks for posting. I have been searching for the right pillow forever.

Hi Billy--I dont have TOS but i had acdf surgery on neck and severe right shoulder problems ---I would say I bought every pillow under the sun my pillow.com-- on line,wedge pillows are stiff,memory foam,water pillow....my guess I spent over $600.00 (lol) desperate to get a good night sleep. It boiled down what worked best for me was two cheap extra soft thin pillows u can buy anywhere. Hope this helps before you spend alot of money like me trying!:winky:

Call them and they will tell you. Also there are often coupons or specials. It is supportive but light. There are different fill amounts. It goes by your body type.

I was interested in the My Pillow, but read some terrible reviews about it and also negative things about the customer service. I don't trust infommercials also.

But glad it worked for you. I am very picky about pillows.

I actually found their customer service to be great. I had a problem with a missing item and they fedexed me a new one immediately. I love the pillow and have given them as gifts.
