No arthritis here, but I would often wake w/shoulder pain until I started using
2 pillows. I am side sleeper as well. Both are memory foam and we have a memory foam bed.
There are other pillows designed specifically to take some pressure off the shoulder. I have not tried those since the 2 pillow s work for me.

Nope, not enough. I sleep for maybe an hour.

Tylenol doesn't do a whole lot for arthritis

No other pain medication has a better safety profile tho

Talk to a rheumatologist. Arthritis gets thrown around like “chronic lyme’s”

You don’t need to see a rheumatologist to diagnose osteoarthritis

Likely true but osteoarthritis gets used a lot for things that aren’t.

I trust my doctor. I've had other shoulder issues in the last year.

Hahaha. You are absolutely correct. I was thinking of rheumatoid arthritis.

Not good advice. Shoulder arthritis is an easy call for someone who see it

You could try out a shoulder relief wedge pillow like one of these
