i like both foams memory and regular ones. though memory is better. if you get the ordinary one get a really thick one.

Go for the memory foam f you can afford it.Heard it helps a lot.Wish i could afford one. marilyn

I use a memory foam pillow and it's great so I imagine that an entire mattress would be the way to go.

MEMORY FOAM MATTRESS AND ILOW....GREAT!!!!

ive never tried a memory phone mattress but we have a select comfort mattress and i live it. it was well worth every penny. Weve had it for over 8 years and it has helped alot. I also bought a very expensive select comfort pillow that is, i think, some sort of memory foam. It was expensive but i wont sleep on anything else. my head doesnt lay on any other pillow but that one.
Good luck. sleep is an important part of our lives with fibro.

We had a cheap ars bed for 19 of the 20 years we've been together. It was hard, lumpy and agonizing. When we moved, I got to throw it away and was so happy! We purchased a Serta "Princess Elite" with a pillow top and fleecy topper. It's warm and elimiated those "feels like a nail in my shoulder, back and knee" pains.

I know they make a memory foam topper that would be great too. I'm worth every penny of mine! I know you'd be worth every penny of yours! :)

I tried regular foam toppers, one flat & one egg crate, on my regular plush top (no foam) mattress. Did not help me.

Then I bought a memory foam mattress. It did stop the many of my "hot" spots (esp in my hips) from hurting so bad.

I was very leary at first. But I've had mine for over two years and I can sure tell the difference when I sleep in a regular bed.

I also use a memory foam cervical style pillow and it has helped as well.

One thing worth noting: memory foam mattresses are heat conductors. So depending on your internal thermostat, you may or may not like the additional warmth provided by the foam.

love my memory foam topper
but it does kinda make you sweat more

I did recently see a memory foam topper called a cool max, I think. It is supposed to counteract the extra heat. I saw it on QVC (I'm not associated w/them in any way except they end up with lots of my $:). It was pretty pricey tho.

i actually have 2 thick feather beds ontop of my matress and they are very comfy..

I got a memory foam topper at walmart that was a step up from the egg crate type. Mine was 40 dollars and it is like an inch thick. It has really helped me so much. I wish I could afford a new mattress but if you can't this will help. Hugs, Keleee :)

Thank you so very much, to all you that replied,I am going this weekend to look at prices ect.I will keep all your helpful tips in mind.May you all have a good nights sleep.

I have done some research on this same subject.I have Fm and several other sleep disorders I did find this review and maybe something you can check out.
I purchased the Sensus 4" Queen sized topper from bestbeds.biz for $250.

I would like to reiterate that this topper is truly since when you first lay down to bed. It just so soft, yet supportive. It's like a getting tempurpedic mattress on a budget!
Hope you find something that helps you.

There is no question in my mind of mattress type. SLEEP NUMBER is the godsend for me. It is expensive, but it is guaranteed for 20 years and your health is worth the expense.

I have a mattress with "memory foam" (not the memory name brand, but Simmons brand) and I love it. I didn't really realize until LAST NIGHT when I tried and FAILED to sleep in my sons bed, how much the bed it comfy. I can offer this, that memory foam, does REMEMBER your butt if you lay in it long enough tho! My bed is only a few years old and was thousands, and it slopes into the center, LOL! Funny looking! Anyway, if you get the topper, try to get a good thick one, or even two, but I am SURE that it will help!
