Need Supportive Neck Pillow Recommendations, Please

I am a back sleeper with neck issues at the base of my skull if I don't get proper support.  I need to replace my pillow, which is more than a couple years old.  Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

I have been very happy with MyPillow. I can fluff it up or pat it down to the exact height I need and it stays that way all night. No other pillow I have tried can do that.

I have used My Pillow's, later the firm version. Similar neck issue so tried these and are good for me

I've had cervical spine fusion surgery from the base of my skull down to the top of my shoulders. I need a firm-supporting pillow so I bought a solid latex contour pillow in medium-firmness. It keeps my head from tilting to one side or the other when I'm laying on my back. I need that to sleep w/o waking up with neck pain.

Thank you.   This is the pillow that I am currently using.  I have several.  I loved them in the beginning, but  they are all probably about 10 years old and I feel like they are losing their support.      I think I will replace the ones I have with new My Pillows.  Sorry that QVC stopped selling them.

Thank you.   This is the brand that I am currently using but they are pretty old.  I'm going to replace the ones I have with new ones.

I also have neck pain issues.  I did an online search for cervical neck pillows and found mine that way.  Makes a huge difference.  Amazon has tons of them.

Simply google best pillow for back sleeper to start your research. I'm confident that will point you in the right direction. If you have a Kohls dept store near you they have a number of pillows all labeled for different types of sleepers.

We're a MYPILLOW household. I've had cervical fusion five years ago and find this pillow to be comfortable and supportive.  I bring it along when we travel too.

@lavenderfields   Sorry if I am stating the obvious, but you can put your My Pillow in the dryer and.fluff it and it comes out like new again. Wasn't sure from your response, if you knew that or not. I fluff mine when it starts feeling uneven.or lumpy and it comes.out of the dryer after.about 10 minutes just as comfortable as ever. Good luck!
