Two pairs is probably a good idea since you're going all that way! Best of luck and please let us know how you get on.

Have you started lying on a very thin mattress topper on wooden boards yet, as described upthread? Or will you wait until after the trip?

Yes I started experimenting with a hard surface a couple of years ago after
I found some of Dr Martins da Cunha's recommendations on a French posturology website. More recently my husband modified my side of the bed, so I don't have a soft option any longer. :) I find with the sleeping posture - the more front lying one - I get more restful sleep. If I test for cranial nerve relaxation in that position I find I can fit more fingers in my mouth!
I had eye surgery at 13 so we're just hoping the pallisades (where the proprioceptive fibres are) are intact, although my rough and ready assessment of myself suggests the need for the stronger prism on the other side.
Thanks for your support and encouragement! I will definitely update in due course.
Anne.
