RE: my pillow
Are you talking about the "my pillow" that I hear advertised frequently on the radio?
Sleep is worth the effort.

We purchased my pillow but it elevated my head to much and cut off my breathing.

I'm just a cpap user like you. I don't give medical advice. Seek the advice of a physician before seeking treatment for medical conditions including sleep apnea. Sleep-well

RE: my pillow
I also didn't find the my pillow comfortable at all. Neither did my wife. We hated them so much that we didn't even offer them to the kids to try, just tossed them in the garbage.

RE: my pillow
I got the MyPillow Medium fill and it was just right for not causing positional apnea supine and decent enough for side sleeping. I had issue with the Firm fill. I recommend medium fill for those with positional apnea issues.

UPDATE: See my updated post #9 below.

Mike Lindell is a certifiable nut job. I don't anticipate buying any of his products.  Eat-popcorn

He might have given up crack decades ago, but he still acts as if he's using it.

RE: my pillow
I wish I could edit my earlier product review of MyPillow. This pillow was a placebo for me.

I personally feel that a cheap Target pillow does fine as long as you get the right thickness. If you have positional apnea, any cheap shallow pillow will do.

Even the medium fill is not shallow enough and would cause moderate chin-tuck for me.

I'm totally fine with a cheap Target pillow. Don't need to pay $40 for a cheaply made pillow stuffed with pieces of memory foam. I didn't care for buckwheat pillow either. It retains it's shape and was too thick for positional apnea. I wish I didn't give that nut job my money.
