You're welcome!
Instead of using the Breg at bedtime, IF that's what you tried, you could try frozen gel packs wrapped in a towel to reduce the intensity of the cold. Or a cool water bottle, refrigerated, not a frozen one.
Just a couple of ideas that you may not have tried.
I hope you sleep well tonight.

Thanks so much. The BREG has a high and low setting. The low setting doesn't chill me too much and makes my knee cooler to the touch. My icepacks are way colder than the BREG on low. I think the BREG might be causing me to keep my leg too straight. Not sure. Still getting used to sleeping without the Lounge Dr.

Still getting used to sleeping without the Lounge Dr.

What was your reason for giving up the LD? I used my off and on for over 6 months. When I wanted to lay on my side, I'd just push the Lounge Doctor to the side for a few hours while I could sleep on the side. When I got back on my back, I'd pull the LD under my knees again.

Happy Three Month Anniversary, AtinaCecile!

Best Wishes as you continue healing.
