    I think it’s safe to lie flat. I think the main reason they get you to sleep elevated is to help drain the swelling. I’ve found that some mornings I’ve woken up lying flat as I’ve shuffled down the bed in my sleep!!

    Be careful hun, thy say 7-10 days. I thought mine had completely gone down and then they went down some more – I’m on day 11 and started sleeping flat two nights ago xx
