'nother survey,
Do you normally favor sleeping on the side where you get CH or not? (Obviously, not while having an attack)

Me, absolutely, right side

I've got the rare form of CPH, I get hit on both sides. but i prefer to sleep on my left side. (the right gets hit quite regularly while the left gets hit only every other attack).

Start out on left side for some reason cause it just seems the right thing to do, but always end up on my back in the mornings.

I'm a left sided CHer. I've now gotten to the point where I'm scared shitless to sleep on my left side.

I'm a left sided CH'er and a left sided sleeper.
During cycle though, I try not to sleep on my left side.
I also am sooo bad about sleeping ONLY on my left side, that, now that I am older, I will have terrible pain in my left hip after a while if I don't make myself sleep on the right for awhile.
What is really weird though, is that I used to be a right side sleeper.... I'm thinking about this as I type and what I'm thinking is that I tend to sleep "towards the outside"
In other words, if you were standing at the end of my bed and I was laying on your left hand side... I would be sleeping on my right side so that my face is towards the edge of the bed. If I were laying on your right hand side, I would be sleeping on my left side...again face towards edge. This could be because I have been married for 16 yrs... Don't take that wrong! LOL! I have this thing about breathing other peoples air. I know, sounds stupid, but I feel like I'm not getting any oxygen if I am breathing in my hubbys carbon dioxide... I also cannot breathe my own carbon dioxide..ie I can't sleep with the covers over my head. So for me, I think it is really a case of seeking the most open and unobscured space.
Before I was married... I always slept on my right side and on the left side of the bed.... so I guess that kills that theory... at least in my case.

Most of the time, attacks included, I go to sleep sleeping on my left side but find myself on my back when I wake up. I have no idea what this means.

Oh well,
No connection there, I guess I actually fall more in to the Sherry category, I sleep facing the open side and I get more oxygen that way.
However, the other reason is that even when not in cycle whenever I get shadows with nasal stuffiness, if I lay on that side the sinuses clear up, but maybe I'm just weird. Before I hear any smart ass remarks, remember, everyone is someone else's weirdo...
