Mattress Forum

I could use some help with choosing the right ILD for a latex mattress. I am a side sleeper (sleep with my arm under pillow and my head on top) When I sleep on my right side my shoulder and my rib cage along with my lower back ache most of the day. If I sleep on my left side the same pains on that side.

I am 5' 8" 200lb(50 years old btw) 

I think I have read enough that I believe talalay latex is what I need.

I was thinking of ILD of about 29 in 6 inches with a 2 inch topper of 20 ILD.

Maybe I am way off the mark here but am trying my best to guess at whats correct for me. I have bought two new mattresses in the last few years (one pillow top-current and before that one a plush that was not as bad as the pillow top but still not great)

I'm begging for help

Thank you for any help anyone can give me
