Hi Zak I am sorry to hear about your predicament,it must be dreadful,I am sure your occupational therapist would be able to suggest something,it is marvellous what new things are on the market these days.

Yeah I had to do this before I was diagnosed with an abdo tumour

you can get motorised whizzy reclining chairs
and as I got more S O B, I found it useful for sleeping in

good luck PP
I also taught myself to sleep in a hospital chair, with my head on the pillows on the bed.

I think you'd be better with a nursing profiling bed. If occupational health are refusing to lend you one, you can buy them, either second-hand or from about £350.
