Sleep in third trimester

Hi!
Anyone able to recommend any tips/tricks/tools for sleep?
I'm 34 weeks, I have horrible thoracic pain across shoulder blades which makes lying on left side painful in shoulders and neck, and right side gives me acid reflux! I've tried all manner of pillow combinations, bbhugme, hot water bottle, etc and nothing works!
Anyone sleep successfully in third trimester?
How did you do it? I'm consider trying to sleep upright in a chair next!

Propped up by many pillows to a reclined seated position.
I'm normally a side sleeper so it's weird to do it but it's the only way I could sleep for a bit toward the end of pregnancy with our twins.

Might have to try this. What a faff! I'm normally a back sleeper!
