Hi Pete,
I have Fibromyalgia pain. The mattress I have is too firm.
I was told that I need a firm mattress to support my weight. 5'4" 200 lbs.
And while the support is good, the comfort of this mattress is horrible.
Your recommendations, please!
Thanks Judy
Hi Judy,
Your body has, basically, two parts when it comes to buying a mattress.
The inside of your body, your skeletal system, requires some degree of firm support.
The more you weigh, the firmer that support needs to be.
The outside of your body, the part most affected by your Fibromyalgia, requires some degree of softness.
The tricky part is finding the right balance.
Since you have what appears to be adequate support for your size, all you need is to soften the surface.
The surface softness also needs to be durable enough, so that your body weight doesn't cause it to collapse.
Of all the mattress toppers available, Pure, All-Natural, Hypoallergenic Latex is the most durable.
Most of the latex toppers tend to be too firm to do the job of relieving the pain of Fibromylagia, since latex is the most resilient upholstery material available.
However, we do carry an Extra Soft 3" Latex Topper from Suite Sleep.
Shown here:
The degree is pain from Fibromyalgia can vary greatly.
If your pain is extreme, you may also want to consider adding a "Down Alternative" comforter.
Down Alternative, aka: Synthetic Down, is super soft and keeps it's loft much better than Real Down.
For heavier women, the latex topper is where to start, as the Alternative Down comforter will need to be replaced much more frequently.
Light weight women may be able to get away with just one of those toppers.
FedEx Shipping is FREE and that latex topper ships quickly, arriving in about a week.
Thanks, Pete
