Long time lurker, new poster... Mid/Upper back pain with latex, need suggestions...
I have searched the forums without much luck, so I am posting my question here. About a year ago we purchased a split king from SleepEZ. My side has a Talalay soft layer and Dunlop medium and firm layers. When I sleep on the mattress my mid to upper back gets so painful that it wakes me in the night and it tends to be painful the entire next day. I have tried all possible combinations and permutations of the layers with little relief. (I have the same problem on my wifes side of the bed) I have tried thick pillows, soft pillows, two pillows etc. I have also tried different toppers I do tend to end up on my side, occasionally on my stomach... I sleep fine on the guest room traditional mattress or in a recliner. We are going to have to get rid of the bed if we cannot come up with a solution... Any thoughts?

I have found that elevating the head end of my latex mattress helps my back quite a bit. So far. Maybe I need an adjustable bed. I, too, had some trouble adjusting, but I doubt it's the latex for me because I have varying degrees of pain no matter where I sleep. |
