this may sound odd, but does anyone (preferably in europe) know of / have experience with something like a full-body squishmallow cushion thing?

i sleep on my side, but lately the sleeping-induced pain in my hip/leg has become impossible to manage. it's been so bad the last two days that i've *had* to "sleep" on my back. but that's quite painful in lots of other places and makes me so dizzy that i literally nearly fall over when i try to get up, if i'm like that for any length of time. and i can't sleep on my other side as it sets off my heart arrhythmia. (and i got my cartilage piercings in that ear as i knew i couldn't sleep on it lol)
so! i need something super soft to cushion my hip (and dislocating shoulder) on my sleeping side that could go on top of the mattress. which is lovely and supportive, but not very forgiving, i guess.
thank you
(please boost but only if you don't mind)
edited just to say: memory foam is not possible for me
and again: i'm not looking for a body pillow, but thank you for the suggestions. i need something i can lie on entirely, not hug ... -

I never had to use it, but I have seen one at a friend’s place. She could sleep only with that pillow.
I hope you find a solution. This sounds so painful and uncomfortable for you.
I am sorry! -

@kinsale42
are they big enough to lie on or are you just meant to kind of wrap around them?memory foam is out for me, i'm afraid.
thank you!

There are lots of shapes and materials, and probably lots available through Vinted or similar. A friend gifted me hers after her pregnancy/nursing (some nursing pillows are also great!)
I felt like an idiot for not thinking of it sooner; I reject a lot of things outright for being "too femme" (wrongly femme) but my hypermobile body needs the support

@FreakyFwoof it does indeed. But I’m not sure there would be any space left for you in the bed lol. We’d definitely need that king size.

@arichtman
thank you. although i'm not looking for a body pillow but rather something i can actually lie on ...i hope yours are comfy!

Doesn't sound odd at all. I couldn't sleep well without my custom pillow stack, and over the years I've had all sorts of variations on the forbidden side.There is a type of special inflatable mattress with separate cells, I can't remember what it's called, but I was tempted to get one last year. They're used in hospitals, which is where I met one.
This looks like it:
