I got rid of my memory foam topper. It didn't help. I was looking to get a numbers bed... someone said they weren't all that. I don't know what to do! My mattress is orthopaedic. It doesn't seem to help. Let me know what you figure out. I am so tired of waking up in pain!

Here's hoping for less pain for us all!

I got a great mattress a while back through the local HealthSource office. They directed me to the website www.myergohealthsource.com and said that a discount code 24993 would give 25% off of normal prices. the bed was built to my height, weight, sleep position, etc and can be split with each side built to each person sleeping in the bed. I have had it for 6 months now and it is the best mattress i have ever had.

I have had the WORST time with being comfortable sleeping! I bought a $1200 firm mattress set...miserable. Gave that to my son, bought a $400 firm set... miserable. Bought $100 memory foam topper...miserable, couldn't even get off the bed sometimes!!
Sleeping on the sofa...a little less miserable.
Sleeping on the floor on some folded blankets...actually not bad, seems to be the only thing that consistently helps the pain. However I worry about creepy crawlies, and also it gets cold down there.
I HAVE been looking at this http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003VQTX44/ref=ox_sc_sfl_title_7?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A16KD7O2BZGIZO

Anyone tried this?

Stargone... nothing makes me comfy. The floor is the worst for me. I don't know what to do about the sleeping situation. Good luck with yours!!

My doctors at Lewis Pain advice to choose any mattress thats most comfortable to you. But you must make sure that your sleeping position is right (as recommended by your doc) and its best to go for therapeutic procedures.

My injury is a sacral tear ... and, I sleep on a natural latex mattress.

Not memory foam ... but, 100% organic natural latex.

This is the only type of mattress I can tolerate.

I have a sleep number bed and then a 2 inch memory foam topper. I would wake up in tears before I got my sleep number bed. I have a smashed vertebrae with cement stuck in the disc space and next vertebrae from a botched vertebroplasty. I also have Multiple Sclerosis. My bed has been a life saver for me, however I know everyone is different. Good luck to you. I know daily pain is hard.

After many, many years of dealing with back pain my chiropractor recommended I try a memory foam mattress brand I haven't heard of called The Bed Boss. He recommended I try their Visco Heir ET mattress style because he said it seemed to work with most everyone with respect to firmness and, more importantly, support. My only reluctance was the price - it was so much lower than the Tempur-pedic mattresses that I was almost hesitant to purchase it... but I did. I liked the mattress so much I became a distributor! Haha! It changed my life - literally. My back pain is pretty much history now (I continue to get regular maintenance chiro adjustments). We just purchased their Visco Revolution gel infused memory foam mattress in August 2013 and all I can say is... Wow. You can request an unpublished coupon code at http://bestsleepmemoryfoam.com/how-to-order/ and save a thousands over a Tempur product! Good luck!

Are there stores that carry these mattresses? I would have a really hard time buying a bed I had not laid on yet to see if it was comfortable. I need a new mattress like NOW since my back is doing horribly right now.

I have a tempurpedic with the base that moves and has massage function. Mattress wasn't cheap around 2,000 but got the base as close out for new model for under 1,000. It was hard spending the money but wouldn't change my bed for another. Must say that when you first get one they are like a rock until they get broken in. Had hubby and kids jump on the bed to help it out. Good luck

I'll put in my .02 on this one.... I recently got a new mattress. After spending a whole day in different stores testing different beds. I narrowed it down to 2 of them. 1 was a tempurpedic and the 2nd one was a Sealy Optimum Elation... The Optimum one due to the cooling gel in it.... 13 inches of foam total, 2 of cooling gel memory foam, 4 of memory foam under the 2 of cooling gel and 7 as a foam base. The tempurpedic was great with but it didn't have the cooling gel.
I will say this. Sealy was bought by Tempurpedic in 2012 so I think that tempur's technology crosses over with Sealy now. I have had it for a little over a month and all I can say is AWESOME sleep.
BTW, I have DDD, osteo, 5 bulging in my thoracic spine, a scs and a cervical fusion. I can say I sleep like a baby on this thing. I don't toss and turn anymore because it is so comfortable.
I hope this helps.
