I have chronic lower/mid back problems due to degenerative disc disease.
I also sleep on my stomach, which is bad for people with back problems, but I can't help it. I am looking for a king mattress that will be good for my back pain and will either... 1) allow me to sleep on my stomach and help with my back 2) make me comfortable enough to fall asleep on my back while giving me some support THere are a lot of choices out there... 1) Traditional mattress (firm, soft, or pillow top) 2) Swedish Tempur-pedic mattress 3) Craftmatic adjustable bed 4) Air matress (Select Comfort or Comforaire) 5) Latex mattresses Does anyone have any personal experience similar to mine that found a good solution. Cost really isn't an issue, so if I need to spend big $$$$ on a mattress, I will. Thanks! |

Simmons Beautyrest "Mc Calister" It's called mc calister at one place, the "exceptionale" at another. Pretty much the top end one. It's a pillow top, but only on one side. Two sided pillow tops lead to that bouncy feeling whenever you get on the bed, and feel like you'll roll off if you're sitting or sleeping towards the edge. You never have to flip, rotate, or any of that other nonsense. Built with a "foundation" on one side of the mattress, and pillow top on the other. The pillow top is made of memory foam material. I HIGHLY recommend it. Recently moved in with BF, and I never even feel it when he gets out of bed. Individually wrapped coils.
