Question about FBM durability

How much will a 5" slab of LUX-R soften over time?  I am a 250lbs man and I need a firm mattress for my lower back.  I have been on a merry-go-round with all the bedding products I own.  I have said 5" LUX-R resting on a quality platform bed (I even put pegboard over the slats for a totally flat, breathable surface), a 3" Dunlop "soft" topper from Savvy Rest, and a wool topper. 

It's a brick.

However, that is only after one night.  I can feel the foam wanting to "give" and am hoping it will conform to my body shape.  Imagine, hoping for a body impression!  The latex from Savvy Rest has really just pancaked.  I am reluctant to buy a softer layer until I can feel how much the LUX-R will breakdown.  Keep in mind this is the "R," not the "HQ" Lux from FBM.

Anyone?

Thanks, Fran
