I didn't need one. I was able to sleep (flat on my back) in my bed. Recovery was actually very easy. Don't sweat it - it might not be nearly as bad as you expect. At least that is how I found it to be (but then again, I'm only one week out). Good luck!

My surgery was Tuesday. Still a little sore, but my doctor told my husband the surgery was longer because he had to fix a "huge hietal hernia" . So far the pain is not as bad today! So happy for all of you !
