Sleep apnea and other problems
|
I am a mess when it comes to sleep. I have sleep apnea, hot flashes, and wake up in the night sometimes with hip pain. Seeing sleep theapist, have mask, but wonder if a newer mattress would also help. I like a really soft mattress but am not sure if this is the best to use. Have layed on the softest tempurpedic and it seemed ok but hate to take the plunge if it does retain body heat (as the sales person seemed to indicate). I run hot and cold during the night from what I assume are hot flashes. They are getting better with hormone therapy which I hate to do but I need a good night sleep. When I do sleep, I often wake up feeling like I did not get a restful deep sleep. Any suggestions on kind and type of mattress? This message was modified Oct 21, 2010 by Wildcougars

Re: Sleep apnea and other problems
| What kind of mattress do you have and what don't you like about it? You might be better off trying to work with it (toppers, etc.) instead of buying new. Most of the major "S" brand mattresses out there are not well made anymore. The foam will go bad after a few months. So, I would think it through clearly before you jump into something new (as many of us have learned the hard way). |

| Thanks for the replys. My ahi was 27 and is down to 6 or 7 which my sleep doctor says is normal. This poses another question. I am a highly sensitive person. Would this 6 or 7 times an hour waking me up and thus not good sleep. My sleep therapist has help in me sleeping longer stretches but no restorative. Yes I should investigate more. Like most people it seems I have little time to do things for me. And no, right now that is not an option to change my life. Well I guess we all could do that but I am looking after my father who has dementia after my mother passes away. At this point, I can not put him in a nursing home. I am really off topic now. |

Hello Wildcougars, I was suffered from same problem, then i use Titanfit mattress X30. It infused with 30 times more AquaMetal technology, not only helps you sleep better but also speeds up relief from body pain; and recovery from backache and injuries while sleeping. Titanfit mattress uses Urethane foam – a high quality, natural foam that is resilient enough to adjust to the contours of your body. This type of foam also provides breath ability and is highly durable. It can be used as an overlay over your regular mattress or on its own as a futon.
