Friendly PSA to try raising the head of your bed if you have any kind of sleep issues. Literally just stick a couch cushion or some old clothes under the head of the mattress to raise it a little. It costs nothing to try

If you have mild sleep apnea or acid reflux this can work wonders for you

Where did you learn about this?

My ENT. Went in for ear infection/my lifelong sleep issues, something prompted him to check whether I have a deviated septum (fortunately don't), and he noticed my throat has acid damage and was like "well there's your problem" lol

raising the head of your bed was step #1 in the photocopier-burnt-to-hell "So You Have Acid Reflux..." patient pamphlet they gave me
