Shaunny! Try 60mg Tamazapam. I could never sleep on my back, ever. Even out in the field as a US Army Grunt I'd curl up to a nice cozy piece of dirt and sweet dreams....
Now it's the only way I sleep because of my shoulder. I hope it helps and I certainly hope your surgery does as well.

I understand the sleeping on your back thing! I usually sleep on my right side but my last surgery didnt let me do that for about 8 weeks, it was so annoying! I was waking up every hour or two most nights. I am not a back sleeper! I hope you are able to adjust better than I did! Good luck!
