Slept in recliner chair for 3 years

After I broke my ankle 3 years ago and was laid up for months, rather than the faff of making my way to my bed, I slept on my recliner instead.

Unfortunately I got so used to it when I was mobile again, I carried on. I’ve tried my bed a few times but end up waking up when I land on my back as I have chronic lumbar pain (probably all the years in the chair didn’t help.)

I don’t know what to do as I’m starting to not sleep well in the recliner either. Any ideas please?

What about trying one of those adjustable beds, where the top and bottom of the bed raises up to the angle you require, that way to can make it fit your needs
