I find my mattress is causing my fibro pain to be worse so i have been sleeping on my couch which isn't much better. has anyone tried a mattress topper ....one that is a memory foam type? Please let me know if you have found any success with this...i can't afford a new mattress.

I went to a foam mattress and it sure does help... especially hips

I put a 2" memory foam topper from serta (from kohl's). Its better than the gel toppers imo because it has better density.

I started using toppers when the mattresses (spring coil) for the good quality ones, began to jump to the $2k range and when the Stearns and Foster manufacturer got bought out, so I feel your pain about affordability.

Nothing replaces an excellent mattress but toppers can buy you some time.

Hi Gail.....The mattress topper I've got now is by "Sleep Innovations". Mine is 2 inches thick and it has helped me. Don't ever want to be without one. In fact last year I bought a second topper and put it on the first topper. For me it is now 4 inches of comfort I wouldn't have if not for these foam toppers.
I ordered mine from Amazon ....also I have contoured pillow by the same company and have slept on it for 2 years. I hope you find something that will help you....fibro is no friend of ours is it? Take care, Linda
