How to avoid sleeping on your back?


Posted by buttercup on April 21, 2005 at 22:24:52:

My boyfriend had a sleep test and was found to have mild sleep apnea when he sleeps on his back. His doctor's recommendation was not to sleep on his back. Do you have any suggestions on how he can avoid sleeping on his back...perhaps some thing he can attach to his shirt with velcro...?

thank you! :)
