Wedge Pillow for Acid Reflux Reviews
(1) When I was diagnosed with GERD, my doctor gave me several recommendations, including lifting the head of my bed (or lowering the feet…). Rather than monkeying with the furniture, I opted to try out a slanted pillow. Research led me to pick out the MedSlant. In reading about it, though, I also discovered that it is useful for people with sleep apnea, something my husband suffers from. So I decided to make him the guinea pig! I gave him the first pillow I ordered. For the first time in our ten years of marriage, neither of us was woken up that night by his snoring (yes, he used to startle himself awake with his own snores!). He didn’t sleep longer, but he woke up feeling far more refreshed than he had in months. He actually slept through the night, not being roused by the apnea every few minutes. We were both sold. I ordered a second one for myself and got to experience a night without burning in my esophagus. I immediately recommended this pillow to my sister who also has GERD (and whose husband is a mighty snorer, too).
(2) I thought the wedge pillow was awfully expensive, but I am extremely happy with it. I’m glad I took the risk and spent the extra money to get a quality product that works well for me. I’m expecially pleased with the height and width, as well as the slant of the pillow.
It has helped me breathe better while sleeping (as I have mild sleep apnea), as well as helping ease lower back pain so I can sleep better. I’ve actually looked for an acceptable product like this for a long time.
The other things I’ve looked at did not meet my needs. I am grateful for this product. Thanks MEDSLANT!
