Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Speaking of sleep
It's amazing how many maladies lack of sleep can cause.

I'm going in for a sleep study very soon. Hopefully they'll find something worthwhile.

Welcome to Rivendell, Mr. Anderson.
New What type of mattress do you have?
I spent years not really asleep, on both regular and water beds. If I was TOTALLY wiped, I'd sleep, but that was about it.

Then I got a tempurpedic mattress. The difference is incredible. Perfect support on all aspects of my body, good temp control. I stopped rolling looking for a comfy position, simply falling back was good enough, and sleep is easy. No more generalised body pain in the morning.
New very thin futon pad on hardwood floor
in a regular bed after 4 days Im crippled
New But, I have all that . . .
. . with my 40 year old water bed.
New I thought I did
but I was wrong. I've been sleeping on waterbeds for the most part for the last 30 years.

Initial feel is good, warm, supportive, but:

My hips and lower back start to fall apart, there is not enough support as compared to the rest of me, and I end up tossing and turning after about 20 minutes.
New No problems like that here.
When I first got it I had a slight bit of pain from a formerly cracked rib but that adjusted within a week.

Of course I get (very mild) lower back pain around 10 hours in any bed - but it's very rare I get to stay in bed that long.
New That's another thing I'm going to work on
Dunno about a Tempurpedic, though. That's a lot of money to spend to find out it makes my back hurt (like happened to someone I know).

Welcome to Rivendell, Mr. Anderson.
New If ya can stand feathers, a feather bed might be worth a try
They can be very comfortable, but I personally don't like being constrained like that when I sleep. I don't think I'd like a Tempurpedic for that reason.

Good luck.

Cheers,
Scott.
New Compare body types
Bman HATES them, but then again, he believes he slept on one in a hotel.
How do we know he really did, or one of the cheap rip-offs?
And if it was, maybe it is related to size and body type?
Either way, go hang out at a store for a couple of hours.
Kick back, read a book, relax.
But give it a while, it is worth it to find out whether is suits you.
