Pillows for sleeping

[jorlex137]

Do any of you recommend a certain pillow for sleeping at night to help avoid chiari headaches?

.....The log type is great bcuz it is not the size of a normal pillow and and I could avoid certain areas of my head didn't touch......

Did u check out the site for the chiari pillows......

don't laugh, but when the ha gets me really good, i put a pillow....kinda tuck it under each side of my neck, under my ears and just put my head on the bed.  my head isn't really propped up on the pillows, but just kinda supports my head.  sounds goofy, but it works for me!  lol  what can i say.   i'm chiari wierd!

Hmm, the one I currently use is a memory foam from JcPenny and I loved the switch from a reg. pillow to that.  However wondering if there is something better.

Hi...there is a chiari pillow...I do not know if that would help u...I do not have one...some like them some do not....there is a link for the pillows in the Health Page Links......

I do however like the pillows I do have ...one is from Homedics....it is a half a log style with memory foam....

My other pillow is from TARGET.....it is called reshapeable.....very comfy.
