I Sleep in My Recliner!
At age 41, I was diagnosed with Degenerative Disc Disease of the spine and had to have FOUR surgeries within four years; Two were spinal fusion surgeries, one, to remove as much "hardware" as possible, and one to implant a Neurostimulator!
I was left with Chronic Pain that will stay with me forever, but I soon found that I was most comfortable in my recliner.
I take frequent breaks during the day and night in that recliner for lower back and hip pain, (although I wish I could snuggle up with my husband in our soft bed) ! I could never get as comfortable in our bed as I found in my recliner! It has given me the most comfort each day AND NIGHT! I know that I'm not the only one that does this, too! I was told by my Sister-in-Law that SHE also sleeps in her recliner, as she also experiences back pain quite often!
IF YOU HAVE BACK PAIN, I WOULD ADVISE ANYONE TO PURCHASE A QUALITY -NAMED RECLINER BECAUSE YOU WILL FIND YOUSELF GIVING IT A WORK OUT! I'M VERY GRATEFUL FOR MINE! :)
