Bad bed or more fibro fun?
Don't know if what I'm feeling right now is more fibro or more of unnormal bed for the last few days. Fatigue, back hips and legs are killing me, legs get really bad when I lay down at night. Praying that this is a bed issue since this could be crippling to have when dealing with work next week. Not to mention the possibility of more meds to deal with! Ironic thing is this bed is more comfortable to my body because it is softer, but it jacks my back to high heaven? Not to mention I know this bed has a good mattress on it for backs since my brother-in-law sleeps on it and he has a blown out spinal disc! Sigh! Let's hope for the bed issue. Right now on the computer until I can't keep my eyes open....maybe then sleep will come easier.
Hubby has a solid job lead for tomorrow. Interview is actually with a former coworker with his. Interview is in Seattle area. We'll see what happens. Don't want to think about a move at this point. On the flipside...if we had to move to Seattle, I happen to know that my brother and sister-in-law's docs are very free about their pain med dispensing! Will see what happens. Moore later -- Genny

I can\'t sleep on a firm bed, even though it\'s supposed to be good for bad backs. For me, the softer, the better! I think Fibromites in general need soft beds with soft pillows and soft sheets. Lotsa soft! Until you\'re home, try sleeping with a pillow under your knees. Yes, it means you can\'t sleep on your side very easily, but I bet it will help some of your pain. I have to do that when I sleep in strange beds and it helps a LOT. Also, if you can get your hands on a egg crate mattress topper, that will help, too. Hope you got some good sleep!! *HUGS*
I sleep on a heated waterbed, I used to wake up crying with pain on a hard matress, the leg pain ??? I just hope it goes away quickly.J
